How To Benchmark A Server
How do you pros do it benchmark your servers?
I got raid 6 setup and going with cache and bbu. I'm starting to copy data into the new raid drive and Windows is indicating 119MB/s at best.
Granted the source disk is a sing disk on AHCI but its 6Gb/s too. Shouldn't I be seeing much faster speeds?
New raid, new dual CPU board, DDR4 Etc.
4 hours to move a 300GB OwnCloud Folder.
This cannot be right!
I have both processors installed but I only have 32GB of DDR4 and another 14 slots to fill but I need to slow down on the purchasing :)

I think I did this smart this time. Or at least not as dumb...
ss m2 boot dive 120GB. 4 WD Enterpise drives in a raid 6 array on a megaraid 92261-8i and an internal 3TB Red For Host backup and 2TB Red hot spare embedded in the server.
Note: I purchased the Enterprise WD Yellow drives because no raid card (except elcheapo Highpoint Rocketraid Card that created an array on these drives in the first place) can see any of my new WD Red drives no matter how many times I clean them with Diskpart or anything I tried for several days.
I have another thread about this issue and no one seems to have an answer for it.

Do you recall what that was? I would like to test this build if possible.
