I'm looking to expand my old home server running on Ubuntu Server I only have ~100 GB system drive (4 HDs, Raid 5, SAS). Backups are to a USB 1.1 (2TB) I do have lots of spare old SATA HD's with a spare 1GB connection to server box. I have been looking into getting an iSCSI system to run my /data dir from. I would be doing a direct connect no switch or router. Server <--------> iSCSI (6 Bay, Raid 5 or 10) I have read GB can get 130 Mps. Wondering how this would effect postgres performance or even if it would work. Before I spend the money. (don't have to money to buy a new server) I know remount mounting issue maybe an issue. Anyone know of benchmarks comparing local and remote storage for Postgres.
