We have the main DB server on our portal running directly on some of these http://www.oracle.com/us/043970.pdf. Its a high volume site so we really needed the speed. They are supposed to last 6 years but we shall see. We have the 1 TB version, all mirrored giving us 500 GB. We run solaris 10 on top with zfs, so we should see any data corruption very quickly if it starts to happen. The cluster has been running for about a year now _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
