Title: RE: [ActiveDir] [OT] RAID 5 Best Practice

Access database will likely get cached on the client in memory, in any case it’d be all read ops. Access doesn’t cache report output.

For file sharing, I would consider 0Ư but 5 would be more likely since you
probably want/need the space more than the speed. File sharing doesn't
really beat the disks up relative to a busy DC even in large multi-thousand
user file servers I have seen.

 

What about when some idiot user sets up an Access database on one and runs "inappropriate" reports against it.. 

 

 

 

It is why most normal server admins really
have no clue what to look for in terms of IO load on servers but any
Exchange Admin worth anything is looking at that right away in a problem
situation and able to quote IOPS stats off the top of their head and know
what they can get from the underlying disk subsystem. Exchange disk configs
are critical.
