I just put | together an IBM e325 and discovered that the LSI 1030's performance | in RAID1 mode is abominable (5.3-RELEASE-p4, amd64, with Fujitsu | MAP3367NCs). Make sure your system isn't in background init mode etc. Of course I don't know how to do this without LSI monitoring utitilies. Complain to LSI the need for this. Without the various utilities and versions with fixed bugs you can't run a reliable RAID (ie. won't get RAID notificatioin that a drive went away, it is doing a consistancy check, etc). The more people that complain then hopefully we can get LSI to fix their binary only utilities that are required to monitor and admin. their RAID controller :-( I messured the amr RAID controller is faster for everything then aac on the same HW and drives under RAID 10.
