I'm running a bunch of jobs in parallel and spooling them on an ssd. Works pretty well for the money, but you need to work out how to size it.


It makes sense to put Bacula's work directory and any spooling to a separate disk of some kind. It prevents writes for spooling, logging, etc. from interfering with the sequential nature of the volume data writes.

Another thing that makes SSD worth the money is the very fast random read/write speeds and IOPS allows running a local DB server for the catalog. This is particularly helpful for those of us contending with 1G networks, and adding a SSD is far cheaper than upgrading the network to 10 G.
