What is your use case? Disperse is good for archive workloads, big files. I suggest you to buy 10 servers and use 8+2 EC configuration. This way you can handle two node failures. We are using 28 disk servers but our next cluster will use 68 disk servers. On Thu, Apr 20, 2017 at 1:19 PM, Ingard Me

Hi We've been looking at supermicro 60 and 90 bay servers. Are anyone else using these models (or similar density) for gluster? Specifically I'd like to setup a distributed disperse volume with 8 of these servers. Any insight, does and donts or best practice guidelines would be appreciated :) ki
