Hi all, I want to make a btrfs raid0 on 2 partitions of my pc. Until now I am using the mdadm tools to make a software raid of the 2 partitions /dev/sde2, /dev/sdd2 and then mkfs.etx4 the newly created /dev/md0 device. >From performance point of view is it better to keep the configuration of mdadm and just format the /dev/md0 device as btrfs OR delete the raid device and format the 2 partitions /dev/sde2 /dev/sdd2 as a btrfs with 2 devices? mkfs.btrfs /dev/sde2 /dev/sdd2
On a sidenote: If I decide to go for raid5 which is not supported currently from mkfs I have to use the mdadm tool anyway, right? -- Caution: breathing may be hazardous to your health. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
