With 24 drives it'll probably be the controller that is the limiting factor
of bandwidth. Our HP SAN controller with 28 15K drives delivers 170MB/s at
maximum with raid 0 and about 155MB/s with raid 1+0. So I'd go for the 10K
drives and put the saved money towards the controller (or maybe more than
one controller).
That's horrifically bad numbers for that many drives. I can get those
numbers for write performance on a RAID-6 on our office server. I
wonder what's making your SAN setup so slow?
Pre scriptum:
A few minutes ago I mailed detailed information in the same thread but
as reply to an earlier response - it tells more about setup and gives
results of a raid1+0 test.
I just have to react to "horrifically bad" and "slow" :-) : The HP san
can do raid5 on 28 disks also on about 155MBps:
28 disks devided into 7 logical units with raid5, orion results are
below. Please note that this time I did sequential large io. The mixed
read/write MBps maximum here is comparable: around 155MBps.
