If there is misalignment then you end up requiring 2 I/O requests whereas otherwise 1 I/O request would suffice. Naturally this decreases IO performance (less IOps). To avoid a misalignment you have two options: - not using partitions, but using the raw device like Barkley said - use partitions (GPT or normal) and create one large partition, which starts at offset 1MiB (not MB!) thus 1024*1024 bytes. Note that you probably need to convert this to sectors (512 bytes). If you do option 2 right, then the partition will start at precisely the start of a new stripe block - thus there is no misalignment. You can use offsets like 64KiB and 128KiB but i prefer to use 1MiB since that will work with all stripesizes (up to 1MiB, which is rarely used). Merry christmas to all. :) Regards, Veronica From owner-freebsd-hardware@FreeBSD.ORG Tue Dec 25 12:57:07 2007 Return-Path: Delivered-To: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Received: from mx1.freebsd.org (mx1.freebsd.org [IPv6:2001:4f8:fff6::34]) by hub.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id 2AD5116A468; Tue, 25 Dec 2007 12:57:07 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ticso@cicely12.cicely.de) Received: from raven.bwct.de (raven.bwct.de [85.159.14.73]) by mx1.freebsd.org (Postfix) with ESMTP id A847D13C46B; Tue, 25 Dec 2007 12:57:06 +0000 (UTC) (envelope-from ticso@cicely12.cicely.de) Received: from cicely5.cicely.de ([10.1.1.7]) by raven.bwct.de (8.13.4/8.13.4) with ESMTP id lBPCgOnm051806; Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:42:24 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ticso@cicely12.cicely.de) Received: from cicely12.cicely.de (cicely12.cicely.de [10.1.1.14]) by cicely5.cicely.de (8.13.4/8.13.4) with ESMTP id lBPCgDkA033858 (version=TLSv1/SSLv3 cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA bits=256 verify=NO); Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:42:13 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ticso@cicely12.cicely.de) Received: from cicely12.cicely.de (localhost [127.0.0.1]) by cicely12.cicely.de (8.13.4/8.13.3) with ESMTP id lBPCgCX5027714; Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:42:12 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ticso@cicely12.cicely.de) Received: (from ticso@localhost) by cicely12.cicely.de (8.13.4/8.13.3/Submit) id lBPCgCg9027713; Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:42:12 +0100 (CET) (envelope-from ticso) Date: Tue, 25 Dec 2007 13:42:12 +0100 From: Bernd Walter To: Palle Girgensohn Message-ID: <20071225124211.GA27567@cicely12.cicely.de> References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline In-Reply-To: X-Operating-System: FreeBSD cicely12.cicely.de 5.4-STABLE alpha User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.9i X-Spam-Status: No, score=-4.4 required=5.0 tests=ALL_TRUSTED=-1.8, BAYES_00=-2.599 autolearn=ham version=3.2.3 X-Spam-Checker-Version: SpamAssassin 3.2.3 (2007-08-08) on cicely12.cicely.de Cc: freebsd-hardware@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Genesys USB hard disk, 1 MB/s on USB 2.0?

I made further investigation and it came up that the driver itself works correctly but the boards has an extremely short range... In other words I made it work placing the AP less than 5 meters away from the board. Additional antennas did not help very much.... Is just this board that has a weak signal or is the driver that wrongly set the TX power? There's a way to increase the output power by software?

The driver seems to recognize the card correctly but for some reasons it wouldn't work. After a while I came up with a "solution", the problem was in the range. It is extremely short! 6 meters at most in line of sight! I tried with a 15db gain antenna without success.. and I'm wondering if there's a way to increase the txpower of this card (I tried using ifconfig txpower) Can anyone suggest me a board/chipset with higher transmit power? Thanks in advance. Andrea.
