The Sun StorEdge 6130 array software is configured with a default storage profile, storage pool, and storage domain:

   * The default storage profile configures associated volumes to have
     a RAID-5 RAID level, 512-Kbyte segment size, enabled read-ahead
     mode, FC disk type, and a variable number of drives.

   * The default storage pool uses the Default profile (RAID-5) and
     groups all volumes with the same storage characteristics, as
     defined by the storage profile.

If I create a raidz pool using the default storage pool (raidz on top raid-5), will this make sense or work??

We're upgrading to new server with a 6130 storage array (14x 279.396 GB), I want to create a 700G RAID-Z zpool just like our current setup.

How should I do this to get the best performance?

1) Create a volume using 3 disks and create zpool using this volume?
2) Create 3 volumes using 3 disks and create zpool using 3 volumes?

Our application Canary has approx 750 clients uploading to the server every 10 mins, that's approx 108,000 gzip tarballs per day writing to the /upload directory. The parser untars the tarball which consists of 8 ascii files into the /archives directory. /app is our application and tools (apache, tomcat, etc) directory. We also have batch jobs that run throughout the day, I would say we read 2 to 3 times more than we write.

directory info
--------------

/app      - 40G
/upload   - 20G
/archives - 640
