Ok, this is very nice answer, too ;) Very informative, but I know all
this, so it can't help.  I think this needs very good knowledge about
disks and controllers and some programming experience in this area, huh.
Unfortunately I don't have any. 

Btw, what program or method you suggest for benchmarking ? I mean
something which simulates _real_ workload and puts hard stress for disk
subsystem. All this must be measurable and comparable, certainly.

Thanks
