According to the specs for database storage: "Random 4KB arites: Up to 600 IOPS"
Is that for real? 600 IOPS is *atrociously terrible* for an SSD. Not much faster than mechanical disks. Has anyone done any performance benchmark of 320 used as a DB storage? Is it really that slow? ________________________________ From: David Boreham <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, August 24, 2011 12:58 PM Subject: [PERFORM] Intel 320 SSD info Apologies if this has already been posted here (I hadn't seen it before today, and can't find a previous post).
