Hi,
I want to save images directly to the hard disk during acquisition at a frame rate of 30fps. Although, this is a reasonable, not very high frame rate, im not achieving the frame rate im asking for. The maximum that i can get is about 14fps for 582x782, 10-bit images and an Ultra-320 15K RPM SCSI hard drive(which is empty; the OS is on another HD). According to my calculations, i should be able to easily save frames at 30fps, as all i am requiring is 17MB/sec, even if we assume that the bus speed is slow.
I am sure that there is something wrong going on. Could anyone please give me some advise or suggestions as how to fix this?
Using: Cohu 7700 Camera Link
PCI-1428
Labview 8.5.1
Thanks.
