Internal 4-Way SATA RAID For The XPC     A Concept Study
(Review by MS, April 20, 2003)

One issue with looking at file transfer / copy is that the target drive needs to be slower than the initiator. With a 4 disk RAID 0 as target, this is somewhat difficult to achieve, as alternative, we used the Intel "Canterwood" reference system with a 2 disk RAID 0 file transfer over Gigabit LAN. There are a few caveats, especially the problem of bus contention, that is, in the Shuttle SB52G2, the HubLink interface can turn into a bottleneck, also the different cache sizes need to be taken into account as well as the PCI bus as yet another bottleneck. Anyway, it turned out to be quite interesting.
