Hi Beng,

That may be so...but gathering benchmarks figures for the 9550SX, it seems possible to get 200~300 Mb/sec for RAID5 volume. In light of that, a 40Mb/sec iSCSI performance seems to suggest that there's a lot of headroom for performance tweak.

I've used IOMeter, Intel NASPT to get the 40+ Mb/sec readings for RAID5 iSCSI/NAS reading. It would be great if others can share their experience with configuring the 9550SX for best performance with Open-E.

Cheers Ben.
