I'm in the fortunate position to have 6 Supermicro older
VOD servers with the following
config:
- Supermicro
3U case, 3xPSU - Dual Xeon 3ghz P4 class cpu (5 years old..
havnt checked the exact type) - 4GB
Ram - 3ware 9500-8 SATA
controller - 8 SATA SLOTS and a lot of free
drives. - 2GB FLASH
Bootdrive
What I'm
curious about is the RAID5 performance on these old beasts in HW mode vs. SW on Linux
with the controller set in JBOD
mode.
I'm thinking on using Centos
5.5 or Ubuntu or ZFS RaidZ on OpenSolaris.
Any
tips or Recommendations?
