hi
i have ran sqliosim on a new server, and gathered some results and would appreciate a 2nd opinion on them
the C drive is the os and is a virtual machine on another system, so its E,F and G i am more interested as they are on a new SAN

all the drives are 300GB 15k rpm
E and G are both raid 1 and 2 discs each
F is 6 discs in raid 10
