Hi,

as I have learned from the discussion about which SSD to use as ZIL drives, I stumbled across this article, that discusses short stroking for increasing IOPs on SAS and SATA drives:

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/short-stroking-hdd,2157.html

Now, I am wondering if using a mirror of such 15k SAS drives would be a good-enough fit for a ZIL on a zpool that is mainly used for file services via AFP and SMB. I'd particulary like to know, if someone has already used such a solution and how it has worked out.

Cheers,
budy
