Re: [zfs-discuss] Expert hint for replacing 3.5" SATA drive in X4500 with SSD for ZIL

Just a brief addendum

Something like this (or a fully DRAM based device if available in 3.5
inch FF) might also be interesting to test,

any thoughts?

[zfs-discuss] Expert hint for replacing 3.5" SATA drive in X4500 with SSD for ZIL

2009-02-02 Thread Carsten Aulbert
Hi all,

We would like to replace one of our 3.5 inch SATA drives of our Thumpers
with a SSD device (and put the ZIL on this device). We are currently
looking into this with in a bit more detail and would like to ask for
input if people already have experience with single vs. multi cell SSDs,
read- and write optimized devices (if these really exist) and so on.

If possible I would like this discussion to take place on list, but if
people want to suggest brand names/model numbers I'll be happy to accept
them off-list as well.

Thanks a lot in advance

Cheers

Carsten
