Hello guys,
I'm building a database server, the current (unchangeable) specs are:
Intel® Xeon E3-1275
1 x NVIDIA Tesla C1060 4GB
16 GB DDR3 RAM ECC
4 port hardware raid
Linux MD RAID 10 (with 2 disks) or Raid 1 (need to benchmark which is better).
I have to choose the memory subsystem:
2 x OCZ VERTEX 3 SATA III 120 GB

2 x Corsair Force 120 GB

Cheetah 15K.7 SAS 6-Gb/s 300-GB
http://www.seagate.com/ww/v/index.j...toid=6664470bd8cc1210VgnVCM1000001a48090aRCRD
There are also 2 SATA disks for massive storage. My questions are:
1) SAS or SSD?
2) Which SSD is more reliable?
3) Is it worthwile to have 2 SSD, and change the SATA disks with 2 SAS?
thanx
