Hi Amar,

Currently, we are running 40 node cluster and each node has
36*6TB(210TB).As of now we don't face any issue with read and write
performance  except folder listing and disk failure healing. Planning to
start another cluster with 36*10TB(360)per node. What kind of problem will
we face if we go with 36*10(360)per node. Planned 360TB per node is far
from recommended 64TB. We are using Glusterfs with disperse volume for
video archival.

Regards
K. Mohamed Pakkeer
