running win xp and i ran sisoft sandra on my raid setup and it said "Warning W5205 - The write index/performance seems low. While (generally) the sustained read performance will be higher than the write performance, the write performance should be comparable, e.g. not ½ or less than read performance.
Fix: Some SCSI hard drives/controllers may have write verify on; this feature checks that the data written matches the data on the disk by reading and comparing it. While this function is very important for data integrity, the performance hit is large.
More commonly the write cache may be off (i.e. write through mode). This is done to protect the data in case of power/system failure by making sure it is always written to disk synchronously. Again, this feature causes a performance hit so enable only if necessary.
i would like to do this but do not know how
