I have a G5 2.7 duel witha
Seritek external SATA150 card hooked to
a burley raid box with 1x 74GB raptor and 2x maxline III maxtors 250BG
all striped together, now I know these drive aren't best combination
ultimatley I would have 4x 250GB maxtors stripped. My issue is that
the 3 drives I benched with "drive genius" sustained read at around 182 MBsec which should be good enough for full HD playbeck I thought
but when I try and play back a 1080p uncompressed 8bit QT movie
it doesn't even come close to playing smoothly CHOPCHOP:mad:
SO if theres anyonre out there that might be able give me some hints
on how to remedy this would be greatly appreciated.
