storage isn't about performance any more. ok, hyperbole, a little. but even a cheap disk does > 100 MB/s, and in all honesty, there are not tons of people looking for bandwidth more than a small multiplier of that. sure, a QDR fileserver wants more than a couple disks, and if you're an iops-head, you're going flash anyway. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, [email protected] sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
