I looked through that distributor page already and none of the ones I visited listed the IOPS SSD's- they all listed DRAM and other memory from STEC- but not the SSD's.
I'm not looking to get the same number of IOPS out of 15k RPM drives. I'm looking for an appropriate number of IOPS for my environment- that is to say- twice what I'm currently getting. That would be 6k-10k IOPS. If I can do that with four Intel drives for 1/10th of what a pair of ZEUS SSD's are going to cost me- then that would seem to make a lot more sense. It would also be nice to be able to have a couple of spares on hand- just in case a mirror fails. That's a lot harder when the drives areas expensive as the ZEUS. Who else, besides STEC, is making write optimized drives and what kind of IOP performance can be expected? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
