Any suggestions on the best raid config for these guys so as to > maximize performance? to maximize performance don't use RAID but two cache directories, one on each disk. Or, since 500GB may be very enough, just use one disk for cache and other for everything else - system, configs, logs etc. other solution may be use part of one disk for system etc and the rest for cache, other disk only for cache or having everything but the cache mirrorred and two equal partitions on each disk for cache, However RAID-1 will cost some performance and the previous solution may degrade performance because of different load on different disks... -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
