The issue has already been confirmed and a "fix"/hack committed so
there's little point busting his balls for lack of information in his
email. It seems like he was only requesting any updated information on
the issue, not a full diagnosis.
The Dell PE-860 only comes with 2 drives, so its going to be independent
drives, raid 1, or raid 0. Frankly if independent drives or raid 0 are
performing that poorly as well it would seem the issue is even worse
than previously indicated. As for the cache policy, seeing as that's the
fix, your question seems a little odd.
Best regards,
Chris
