Re: [zfs-discuss] Re: x86 CPU Choice for ZFS

with ZFS the primary driver isn't cpu, its "how many drives can one attach" :-) I use a 8 sata and 2 pata port http://supermicro.com/Aplus/motherboard/Opteron/nForce/H8DCE.cfm But there was a v20z I could steal registered ram and cpus from. H8DCE can't use the SATA HBA Framework which only suppo

Re: [zfs-discuss] Expanding raidz2 [Infrant]

Infrant NAS box and using their X-RAID instead. I've gone back to solaris from an Infrant box. 1) while the Infrant cpu is sparc, its way, way, slow. a) the web IU takes 3-5 seconds per page b) any local process, rsync, UPnP, SlimServer is cpu starved 2) like a netapp, its

comfortable with having 2 parity drives for 12 disks, the thread starting config of 4 disks per controller(?): zpool create tank raidz2 c1t1d0 c1t2d0 c1t3d0 c1t4d0c2t1d0 c2t2d0 then later zpool add tank raidz2 c2t3d0 c2t4d0 c3t1d0 c3t2d0 c3t3d0 c3t4d0 as described, doubles ones IOPs,

perhaps these are good picks: 5 x (7+2) 1 hot spare 35 data disks <- best safety 5 x (8+1) 1 hot spare 40 data disks <- best space 9 x (4+1) 1 hot spare 36 data disks <- best speed 1 x (45+1) 0 hot spare 45 data disks <- max space 23x (1+1) 0 hot spare 23 data disks <- max speed it
