Previously I've used software raid-1 for my RH7.x servers and it has worked extremely well. For this new server I am purchasing however I decided to get a 3ware 7506-4LP raid card and 4x80GB drives. The server will do general things like email, web, ftp, dns, etc and will be running RHEL. With 4 drives, I can either do raid-5 with a hotspare or raid-10. Both will give me 160GB of space and theoretically can withstand the loss of 2 drives. Any suggestions as to which raid array type to choose? -- Regards, +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ | Peter Kiem .^. | E-Mail : <zordah@xxxxxxxxxx> | | Zordah IT /V\ | Mobile : +61 0414 724 766 | | IT Consultancy & /( )\ | WWW : www.zordah.net | | Internet Services ^^-^^ | ICQ : "Zordah" 866661 | +-----------------------------+---------------------------------+ My current spamtrap address is est1203@xxxxxxxxxx -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
