SCSI 15000 versus 2x10000 SATA on RAID 0?

[OlliR]

After having a talk with Oli Metcalfe this summer when he was with Muse (and his Catalysts) at Rock am Ring I tried the 3 x 500G SATA Raid Level 0 (Striped).
Works fine for me. Access time seems to be just a little slower than the 15K SCSI times.

I ran 2 full HD 1920 x 1080 Photo-JPEG 75% movies at 30 fps.

Starting another HD playback led to dropping frames on two layers.

But I could run another 720x576 Photo-JPEG 75% movie at 30 fps.

I will do some more testing with SD Movies on more layers.

System setup: Mac Pro 8xCore, 4 GB, 1x500GB System, 3x500GB Content

this all depends on what you want to do-

----

i test hundreds of codecs- i have very clear graphs- showing performance on many different systems.
im working on presenting them a little clearer- in talking to people the detail was too technical.
