we are using Shark (prod) as well as Hitachi (development). Yes, Shark is Raid 5, and so was our Hitachi. Shark is better. We haven't seen bad performance hits, but we are not transactional, we are read only there. SQL-Loader loads run the same regardless of shark or ssa though.
April Wells -----Original Message----- Sent: Tuesday, June 18, 2002 11:22 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L DBA's Anyone using IBM's Shark storage solution? What is you're opinion? I understand it uses raid 5 :-( with a big cache in front. I've talked to a couple of DBA's that are using them and they think they are great and haven't experienced any problems with poor performance (including write speed). We've had a bad experience with Hitachi raid 5, salesman said it was great so the boss bought it.
