I think if you are honest and look at all the notes I have entered, I keep asking the same two questions, which you are yet again avoiding: 1. Why does EMC benchmark with RAID OFF? 2. Why didn't EMC use their IP-4700 benchmarks to highlight it's superiority? You've cut and pasted all kinds of nice freely available material on RAID, which I already know about, you are avoiding answering the simple question. NTAP, Sun Microsystems, Hewlett Packard, IBM and even Auspex (using EMC's Crosstor file system) benchmark with RAID "ON". EMC doesn't because if they did, you would see how bad their performance is - see Auspex's performance with Crosstor for a comparison. This is important, because all customers that buy data storage arrays, NAS or SANs, want parity-protection. Either mirroring or some form of other RAID'd parity protection. "First you barge into here" - how does one "barge in" on Silicon Investor? Have I missed missing, is there a posting protocol page or door bell I must ring? Calling me names and avoiding answering questions, isn't going to make them, or me, go away Gus.
