After a glowing review at AnandTech (including DB benchmarks!) I decided to spring for an OCX Vertex 3 Pro 120 for evaluation purposes. It cost about $300 with shipping, etc and at this point, won't be putting any
Considering that I sprang for 96 GB of ECC RAM last spring for around $5000, even if I put the OCX drives in pairs w/RAID1, I'd still come out well ahead if it allows me to put off buying more servers for a year or two. -Ben On Thursday, April 14, 2011 02:30:06 AM Leonardo Francalanci wrote: > have a look at > > http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/Intel-SSDs-that-may-not-suck-td426 > 8261.html > > > It looks like those are "safe" to use with a db, and aren't that expensive. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
