Hi All!hi!
Would a software raid5 setup be a wise alternative? My primary concern is to make sure the server isn't bogged down by heavy disk i/o
we are using raid5 here in our productions, i can say that this thing really helps us to prevent data corruption due to power down/system crash, it just allowing you to have more disks to access in just one single logical drive, so the input is going to be faster than in single hd.
the thing is "software" raid5 is not sufficient, try hardware raid, gagastos ka nga lang..
another solution is to break down your users accessing the server, at least you can minimize the traffic.
