    Hello to all! I'm new here and i want to contribute to this great community with a benchmark of my bluevm in illinois:

    The super-low IO it's not correct. I think the hard drive was sleeping because i rerun the dd just after the test:

    dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/output.img bs=8k count=256k
    262144+0 record dentro
    262144+0 record fuori
    2147483648 byte (2,1 GB) copiati, 5,64906 s, 380 MB/s

    dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
    16384+0 record dentro

    Most of our drives use power reduction to cut down on wasted power when the actual node usage is low. The first requests will usually be the slowest especially on a empty/new server. After that the drives should get 50+ minimum.

    That said we are buying some new hardware with raid10 with 10 or 15k disks to improve our entire line.

    Thank you for your answer, Justin.
    I rerun the test several times and this is the result:

    dd if=/dev/zero of=test bs=64k count=16k conv=fdatasync
