Hi all, what would be a normal boot time for a Raptor? My rig takes about a minute to a minute and ten seconds to boot with the Raptor as the boot drive.
Also, what would be a normal Raptor's speed as measured by something like Hdtune, or hdtach? What does all the stuff those programs test mean, and what is good and bad? It confuses me.
For Hdtune, here are the numbers I got:
Transfer Rate
Minimum
7.1 mb/sec
Maximum
84.9 mb/sec
Average
72.4 mb/sec
Access time:
8.3 ms
Burst Rate
108.9 mb/sec
CPU Usage
9.8%
For Hdtach, long bench, they are:
Random Access: 8.1 ms
CPU Utilization: 11% (+/-2%)
Average Read: 77.2 mb/s
Burst Speed: 134.9 mb/s
Do those numbers and boot time look normal for a Raptor? Thanks in advance.
