I've used MD1000's in the past but that involves buying a PERCe and doing hardware RAID. I am tending towards doing a software RAID config this time by using mdadm and just needed a minimalistic JBOD to put SATA drives in to. The R410 will only take 4 internal drives (and already using one drive for the OS) whereas I need 8 drives. So I do need some external storage. I was planning on using 8, 1-Terabyte SATA drives.
Any recommendations for a suitable JBOD model? I couldn't find anything suitable on the website.... This is going to be dedicated storage for this particular server so SAN, iSCSI, fiber channel etc. are overkills. Performance is not very important since this will be a backup box so my 100 Mbps network link is probably the bottleneck. -- Rahul _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
