A couple weeks ago one of the drives died. I hot-swap replaced it with
a new one (with no down-time) and the rebuild took exactly 10 hours.
Under normal operation, the speed of the array for contiguous
read/writes is about 600MB/sec, which is faster than my SSD (single
drive, not RAIDed).
Thanks...
But... RAID read/writes under normal operating conditions has nothing
whatsoever to do with REBUILD speeds/times.
Again, the reason I'm interested in this is, if the rebuild times are
'blindingly fast' (as compared to the times for SATA or even fast SAS
drives - ie, 1 hour vs your 10 hours)), then maybe a RAID6 with SSDs is
back in the realm of doable, since you don't lose 50% of available
storage with RAID6...
