It would seem you're one of the countless we see here with hardware,
real or imaginary, who has no workload, or is seeking a workload for his
hardware.  This is the wrong approach.

You need to approach this list with:

1.  This is my workload
2.  This is the hardware I currently have (suitable or not)
3.  How do I best setup my storage to meet my workload requirements?

You're approaching this backwards.
