we (some folks at work) have built two backblaze boxes (roughly speaking, a linux box with 45 2TB drives).
i think i know how to deploy such a beast, but wanted to check my understanding, which is that mdadm is the tool of choice, and that for performance and reliability, raid10 is the sweet spot (specificly, not RAID5). does anyone have anything specific to say about mdadm, and the raid it produces, either good or bad? ------------------ Andrew Hume (best -> Telework) +1 623-551-2845 [email protected] (Work) +1 none currently AT&T Labs - Research; member of USENIX and LOPSA
