This time it's on a validate, but similar: when I issue a validate on SoftRAID 8.5 it said: no errors * validating, waiting for mount * incorrect pa...

I would technically surmise that it still has at least some real-world impact, as data that happens to land on the early blades will seemingly perform...

Still present on 8.3 FYI.

I'd rather email if there's any way to do that, otherwise I'll just wait.I would guess that the steps described can be reproduced on any devices with ...

Okay, here's a grand experiment. I did a verify of drives 1-4, 1-5, 1-6, 1-7, 1-8, and 3-8. Three performance profiles emerge (color highlights are mi...

I'm not exactly sure how either of those follow. I always get 100% performance out of disk1 and disk2 in particular no matter how many disks are activ...

No apology needed! My hypothesis is not that there are consistently faster lanes (this seems disproven by testing), but that there can be bus congesti...

> a ThunderBlade x8 16TB (8x2TB)

@softraid-support is there a way for me to DM or email that to you rather than posting it on the forum? I'm reluctant to ship support blobs that could...

If I verify all 8 at once, drives 1 and 2 are far ahead (offsets ~50M as opposed to offsets ~30M in the same elapsed time). If I verify just 1 and 8, ...

Is it necessarily the case that two of my disks are much faster than the others (with those 2 disks having remarkably similar results, and the other 6...

The "Measure Your RAID" button in the "Choose Your RAID" section on the main SoftRAID page goes to a calculator with 0, 1, 1+0, 4, 5, and 6.
