Thor hard drive array benchmarks

<img src="/images/benchmarks/thor-drives/zcav-alldrives.png" alt="zcav of all drives" /><br />
This is a brief overview of hard drive performance in my file server.
Shown here are all the drives on one graph. Next we'll break down each
hard drive.

<img src="/images/benchmarks/thor-drives/zcav-hde.png" alt="zcav of 400G PATA" /><br />
My new 400G PATA drive does pretty good; averaging between 39-41MB/s.

<img src="/images/benchmarks/thor-drives/zcav-hdi.png" alt="zcav of 160G PATA" /><br />
My 160G PATA drive; good performance across the board.

<img src="/images/benchmarks/thor-drives/zcav-hdk.png" alt="zcav of 120G PATA" /><br />
My 120G PATA drive; good performance across the board.

<img src="/images/benchmarks/thor-drives/zcav-sda.png" alt="zcav of 250G SATA" /><br />
My 250G SATA drive is surprising; both in its random performance and the average
speed (around 30MB/s). I need to see if there are any 'acoustic tweaking' things
turned on to try to quiet the drive.
