I've been following the use of SSD with ZFS and HSPs for some time now, and I am working (in an architectural capacity) with one of our IT guys to set up our own ZFS HSP (using a J4200 connected to an X2270).
The best practice seems to be to use an Intel X25-M for the L2ARC (Readzilla) and an Intel X25-E for the ZIL/SLOG (Logzilla). However, whilst being a BIG thing in the Windows 7 world - I have pretty much heard nothing about Intel's G2 devices and updated firmware when Intel's SSDs are used in a ZFS HSP. In particular, does ZFS use or support the TRIM command? Is it even relevant or useful in a hierarchical (vs. primary) storage context? Any comment would be appreciated. Some comment from the Fishworks guys in particular would be great! -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
