I've been told that InnoDB on a raw partition is the fastest setup.
Actually, you've been told that it's probably the fastest.
Correct. Sorry :)
Check the InnoDB docs. They explain how to setup raw disk partitions. You'll be using device names, not mount points.
Thanks. I forgot to check the manual.
Any other tips, pros and cons?
Pros: performance and bypassing the filesystem cache.
Cons: loss of transparency and limited backup options.
What do you mean by transparency?
Thanks for your help, Jacob
