It's physically impossible to get more than 50MB/s parity check with that board using the current configuration, no matter the CPU used.
My media server has the exact same board (C2SEA) with a dual-core Pentium E6300 (PassMark 1700). This is from my last parity check: "Duration: 13 hours, 19 minutes, 32 seconds. Average speed: 83.4 MB/s "
Do you have 16 disks going through the DMI?
Exactly what I was wondering. Over the years I noticed my parity speed gradually slow down as I added more and more disks.
