Hey!
i ordered a chassis with 12 bays and now i am thinking about how to build it up most efficient and safe.
Board would be a Supermicro X10SL7-F with 8 SAS Ports and 6 SATA Ports.
Thanks to the great noob ppt from cyberjock i know 11 drives would be better together with raidz3.
I guess its not a good idea to mix SAS and SATA drives in the same VDev.
But wouldn't it be sad to not use SAS? If its already exist.
It will be a NFS storage for OpenVZ.
What is the better solution:
8 SAS raidz2 (i guess still better raidz3 or?) and another pool with 4 SATA drives.
Or
11 Sata raidz3 (and hope that hot spare will be available soon)
Or
?
Best wishes
Steve
