DRIVE TYPES
• FLASH – Extreme Performance Tier – great
for extreme performance.
• SAS – Performance Tier – perfect for
general performance. Usually 10k RPM or
15k RPM.
• NL-SAS – Capacity Tier – most cost
effective, for streaming, agining data and
archives and backups
RAID GROUPS
• RAID 1/0 – this RAID group is appropriate for heavy
transactional workloads with a high rate of random writes
(let’s say greater than 25-30%)
• RAID 5 – I would say this one is most common one. Works
best for medium to high performance, general-purpose
and sequential workloads. And it’s much more space
effective, since blocks are not mirrored, and parity takes
only one extra disk (distributed on all disks thru the RAID
group)
• RAID 6 – Most often used for NL-SAS. Works best with
read-based workloads such as archiving and backup to
disk. It provides additional RAID protection (two disk may
fail in one RAID group, instead of 1 with RAID5).
