[How to] install Leopard on a software RAID
I've juste updated the wiki with this howto.
The XBench score is not very good for a RAID but take a look at the sequential test. Report success or failure here. Mac OS X 10.6.3 • 2.8 GHz Intel Core I7 860 • ASUS P7P55D • 2 GB 2 Ghz DDR3 • ATI RADEON XFX 4890 1GB • 2 x Hitachi 160 GB Serial-ATA • PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-112 • LaCie Desktop Harddrive 750 GB USB |

Any chance you could find/add a nforce4 raid driver in the next rev? For the onboard on the sata raid.
Most hw raid computers are nearly twice as fast as without raid. I think Leopard install on raid would be very fast. Does the above indicate that with software raid on one harddrive the hd is faster? you need to show the baseline for comparison |

As soon as you come up with a way to do it without a working installation, I know I'll be giving it a go. |

Here is my XBench without the software RAID.
That's why I say that the score is low for a RAID. Mac OS X 10.6.3 • 2.8 GHz Intel Core I7 860 • ASUS P7P55D • 2 GB 2 Ghz DDR3 • ATI RADEON XFX 4890 1GB • 2 x Hitachi 160 GB Serial-ATA • PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-112 • LaCie Desktop Harddrive 750 GB USB |

I wonder why my disk scores are so low compared to yours, the uncached write seems to be the biggest factor I get just over 1MB per sec.
I wonder if disc size is a big factor. I'm using an 80gig Seagate disc. |

What's your SATA chipset ?
