On a front-facing server, web or database, we use RAID 1. Up until recently that was a pair of 146GB SAS drives which is heaps of capacity unless you are doing very high-end stuff and RAID 1 is the fastest of the simple RAIDs for reading which is what happens most. The backend is NAS equivalent with RAID 6 where reliability is the thing, not speed. > Btw that was one nasty tech, who should have know better. > And he just walked out saying nothing! Not a sorry or anything and the poor client had to bring the entire machine up from scratch. Fortunately the client had left the machine's disk set with us so we did the OS and App (CF 6.1) install and the like and he did the rest remotely. We made a formal complaint about the tech..... :-) Kym K --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "cfaussie" group.
