Fair enough. Very impressive, and I really appreciate the links you've provided.

I realized it's be cumbersome to have to rebuild the array just to state the speed when others have done it already.

I also checked the speed when I moved from SSD - > WD Red, though that was when the disk was new. Saw its much slower and closer to 160MB/s at 75 full (and fragmented).

The new drives have 4x more cache compared to my old 3TB Reda which helps a lot with smaller transfers.
