    SCSI Ultra2 and baracuda?

    my knowledge bout SCSI is limited..... i want to know why my 180 gb baracuda on SCSI ultra2 doesnt runs faster then the non ultra 2 card.

    cards i have frm Adaptec....

    AHA-2940UW
    Data Transfer Rate
    40 MByte/sec

    AHA-2940U2B [IBM kinda same as U2W]
    Data Transfer Rate
    80 MByte/sec


    now i assume my drive should works faster in terms of read / write speed on 80 MByte card?. but its the same.
    though i havnt tried any benchmarking program , but iv used nero's cache speed and pinnacle studios drive test for fastest spped drive for capturing. heres what i got.

    Nero's cache Speed Test

    Drive C:\ 45,222KB/s [IDE Baracuda]
    Drive D:\ 42,726 KB/s [Ide Baracuda]
    Drive E:\ 31,232 KB/s [SCSI Baracuda] i got same on my 40 MByte Card.

    Pinnacle Studio Drive test for Capture:

    Drive C:\, D:\ 39000 - 45000 both read / write [IDE Baracuda]

    Drive E:\ Read 34000 - 37000 Kbyte/sec [SCSI Baracuda]
    Write 34000 - 35000 Kbyte/sec





    C, D are on same drive
    Seems like as soon you buy somehing, v. 2 comes out 1.5 times as fast!..!
Working...
