[03:06] Hm, what is a better scenario for better IO throughput: a server with 6 500GB drives on RAID5, or 6 separate 500GB drives? [03:06] We're going to try the former with the dell 2950 [03:08] foo, i'd go with raid [03:09] That's what I thought. Someone is telling me he thinks 6 drives without RAID and storing files across all the drives and what not will result in better throughput, but I'm not too sure [03:09] But, I'm not too sure [03:10] Any input is appreciated, thanks [03:10] i'm asuming scsi, but i dont think 6 drives would be better [03:11] oh, SATA, I think [03:11] Yeah, pretty sure it's SATA [03:11] Yeah, I don't think so either [03:11] Thanks [03:16] foo: the RAID5 is not the speed king [03:17] foo: RAID1 is ;) [03:18] Hm, you're kidding - right? [03:18] heh [03:20] sorry, 0 [03:21] 0=striped? [03:21] yep [03:21] 1 is mirrored [03:21] Right [03:21] 0 does not have redundancy [03:21] but still, raid5 should be faster than n independent drives [03:22] 0 is fast to write, but reading theres no speed gain is ther? [03:22] We do more reads than writes as well [03:22] Kamping_Kaiser: hm, the reads should also be alleviated via striping, so reads should be faster as well [03:26] Impaque, but on mirroring it can read both discs, for any data, with striping it has to read set bits of each disc === Kamping_Kaiser shuts up - cant remember, shouldnt argue it === jhutchins [n=jonathan@64-151-34-11.dyn.everestkc.net] has joined #ubuntu-server [03:28] the data is read in parallel from several discs, less seeking occurs [03:30] Impaque: Are you still implying RAID0 is faster than RAID5 ? [03:31] Only difference between RAID0 and RAID5 is that RAID5 has data redundancy, IIRC [03:32] but that also means you use n-1 drives (the capacity of one drive, spread across all of them, is used for parity only. thus, data "spreading" is less than RAID0 with same amount of drives, where even less seeking occurs while reading) [03:34] RAID0 is used in video/audio production a lot [03:36] take a look: http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/storage/display/400gb-raid0510.html === stratus [n=stratus@201.53.55.52] has joined #ubuntu-server [04:00] does anybody here have any experience with the arco ide products? specifically, installing the linux module / app? === burner [n=burner@c-71-56-237-100.hsd1.co.comcast.net] has joined #ubuntu-server === dj-fu [i=aj@home.junglist.gen.nz] has joined #ubuntu-server [04:31] anyone having problems with mysql being unable to start?
