thanks for your reply,
Yes the VMs are very small and provide only a single service, I would prefer a total of 2TB but 1TB to start is sufficient. Ideally I want a scheme that is easy to expand by dropping an extra disk in each node. When all slots are full, add another node.
our current setup accesses a storage share via NFS, most read/write operations under load are under 4MB. There isn't any long sequential I/O.
Currently we have 2 nodes, I am specing the 3rd and adding necessary components to the existing. Budget around $20k for the upgrade.

Based on your message, it sounds like your total usable capacity requirement is around <1TB. With a modern SSD, you'll get something like 40k theoretical IOPs for 4k I/O size.You don't mention budget. What is your budget? You mention "4MB operations", where is that requirement coming from?On Wed, Apr 4, 2018 at 12:41 PM, Vincent Royer <vincent@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:______________________________Hi,Trying to make the most of a limited budget.
