LSI MegaRAID SAS3 9361-8i 12Gb/s RAID Controller Review

RAID 0 8k Random Read/Write

Server workloads rely heavily upon 8k performance, and we include this as a standard with each evaluation. Many of our server emulations also test 8k performance with various mixed read/write workloads.

The 9361-8i averages 511,493 IOPS at 256 OIO, but the ASR-8885 beats it slightly with 535,358 IOPS.

The Adaptec takes the lead in latency performance at higher OIO.

The 9361-8i provides an average of 445,752 IOPS at 256 OIO. The ASR-8885 delivers an average of 401,359 IOPS at 256 OIO.

The 9361-8i closes the gap as we mix in more write activity.
