Makes sense. My understanding is not good enough to confidently make my own
decisions, and I'm learning as Im going. The BPG says:
- The recommended number of disks per group is between 3 and 9. If you
have more disks, use multiple groups
If there was a reason leading up to this statement,
Mattias, what you say makes a lot of sense. When I saw *Both of the above
situations resilver in equal time*, I was like no way! But like you said,
assuming no bus bottlenecks.
This is my exact breakdown (cheap disks on cheap bus :P) :
PCI-E 8X 4-port ESata Raid Controller.
4 x ESata to 5Sata
A, I see. But I think your math is a bit out:
62.5e6 iop @ 100iops
= 625000 seconds
= 10416m
= 173h
= 7D6h.
So 7 days 6 hours. Thats long, but I can live with it. This isnt for an
enterprise environment. While the length of time is of worry in terms of
increasing the chance another drive
out my PM 3 times over.
So my PM will automatically throttle the drives speed to a third of that on
the account that the PM will be maxed out.
Thanks for the rough IO speed check :)
