Good idea, but a few points : - 10krpm disks will run hotter than 7200rpm disks, this might be significant in your data centre. - the controller you pick will have a major impact on the raid setup - many controllers can't do real hardware raid (e.g. the controller on the Intel E7210 board needs windows for sort-of hardware raid, but the 3ware 9000 series sata controller will do real hw raid.) -- regards, Andy Davidson Sysadmin www.ebuyer.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
