Hey guys,
I have a question for you now that I'm diving into a machine with more drives on a single system than I've ever worked with before.
Hardware:
Supermicro Rack PC with Avago MegaRAID SAS 9380-8e HBA. Motherboard has Dual Xeon E5-2640 V4 cpus (10 HT cores each)
Supermicro SC847 JBOD housing with room for 44 disk but currently populated with 22 drives (rear backplane)
(22) HGST 8TB drives - Model HUH728080AL5200 - https://www.hgst.com/products/hard-drives/ultrastar-he8
OS is CentOS 7.x (I think 7.2. I just downloaded and installed the other night)
Of course, I'd like to avoid HW raid.
but.. for this array, I was going to split into a couple of RAID6 arrays with a couple hot spares in the rack.
* one for owners data
* the other as a data drive for use with surveillance software (from Milestone probably) running in a VM as a secondary storage vault for company cameras/NVRs that are remote. (like a backup system)
But anything else I should look out for?
Thanks,
-Ben
