The S3500 can be had for $1.00/GB now these days. If you don't need the write durability or the all-out write performance of the S3700, it's a great deal. I do have to wonder if hardware RAID with a BBU can help with write amplification when on SSDs. Though since RHEL/CentOS 6.5 supports trim in software raid, that could be a bigger win. -Dave -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
