BennetTash Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 Hi everyone, I am looking into getting a server that more or less would be dedicated to torrenting. I was hoping to get some direction on Raid cards and, in particular, what kind of disk load uTorrent puts them under. I have found all three of the raid cards I am considering in one toms hardware review going head to head against each other so I have nice set of comparable benchmarks. ( http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/sas-6gb-raid-controller,3028.html ) What benchmarks are relevant to uTorrent and what benchmarks are pointless to look at? I really have no idea whether I need to be looking at a specific IOPS benchmark pattern or be concentrating more on the sequential read and write performance of the controllers. I will most definitely be using a RAID 5 so that narrows the relevant benchmarks down to just the RAID 5 ones. As I have no idea what goes on under the hood of uTorrent's disk stuffs, I figured I would ask y'all.
