Raid 1 vs Raid 5 suggestion

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

 



Hi all,

actually a server of mine has a 2x1TB Raid 1 array.
The disks are becoming old and to avoid possible problems I would like to replace them.

Moving from 1TB of space to 2TB could be enough, but since I have to buy the new disks I am considering different possibilities, which are:
1) 2x2TB Raid 1 array;
2) 3x2TB Raid 1 array;
3) 3x1TB Raid 5 array;
4) 3x2TB Raid 5 array (I know, this will give me 4TB of space, which probably are enough for the next 10 year);
5) 4x1TB Raid 6 array.

Which one, in your opinion, would the the best solution?

Thank you for your suggestions.

Luca
