raid-0 with mdadm vs lvm striping

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm thinking of buying a couple of disks to put in a striped array for performance.  I already have a raid-1 array with mdadm.

Are there are management or performance benefits of using mdadm raid-0 over using LVM striping?

Im thinking along the lines of "LVM might be a better choice because I can have my striping (by adding another disk to the LV) and also have the added bonus of it being more 'manageable' than raid, because I can grow or shrink the LV".

Is my idea full of holes?  Are there well known issues; performance wise or manageability wise of using an LVM as a striped array for performance?

Comments welcome
