The
Test System SATA will compliment practically any system
setup. For this review though, I will be using a top of the range Intel system
which hosts onboard SATA too. Abit IC7-G (i-875 with onboard
Silicon SATA and Intel SATA Controllers) Intel Pentium 4 3Ghz 800FSB with
HyperThreading Technology 1024MB Corsair XMS 3200LL (2 x TwinX 512 kit)
ATi Radeon 9700Pro - Catalyst 3.6 Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum
Ex 2 x Western Digital "Raptors" (10,000RPM, 8MB Buffer) in 16kb-stripe
RAID0 Microsoft Windows XP Pro with all updates The
Benchmarks SiSoft Sandra MAX 3! DiskSpeed32 RoadKil's
Disk Speed Drive! HD Tach v2.61 PCMark2002 The
above benchmarks will be run with a close a build as possible with the latest
drivers for every product. Nothing is overclocked and other SATA Contollers are
disabled when focasing on a specific controller |
