Good afternoon Guys,
I have been reading about RAID for PostgreSQL and some suggestions are:
6 SCSI Disks RAID10 for OS and DB
Or
2 SCSI Disks RAID 1 for OS + 4 SCSI RAID 10 for DB
I know the more spindles you have the better, but if you are going to be
reading and writing to the same volume
Well, there are quite a few more variables to consider, including:
a) speed of the drives
b) battery backed caching controller or not
c) throughput of the controller channels
d) your particular use
Point d is kind of the most important. We've got about 250 customers talking to
the same
