Could you suggest one. Here I want to mention that results for 1024K write improve a lot. Problem is with 1024K read and 4k write .* *SSD journal 810 IOPS and 810MBps* *HDD journal 620 IOPS and 620 MBps* > I'll take a punt on it being a SATA connected SSD (most common), 5x ~130 > megabytes/second gets very close to most SATA bus limits.
