9/1 Edit - Swapped out the Corsair Force GT's for Kingston Hyper X's and I am now getting SSD speeds. Thank you "buddster" for the info. These drives are both SandForce 2281 drives with synchronous flash. Must be a firmware bug on the GT.
Need help! I've been struggling with getting these drives to play nice with my mini for over a week now and I'm having no luck.
Issue: For two SSD's this thing should be screaming fast but I am constantly getting the spinning ball and freezes. I have tried RAID as well as the drives individually. I updated the firmware from 1.2 to current 1.3 on the drives with no change. I have pulled RAM from another machine to make sure it's not a RAM issue and it's not. When I use Xbench I get very random results and it takes an extremely long time to run. Some of the results come in at under 2mbps... This is a clean install of Lion (multiple times actually).
