Subject: Reasonable chunk-size for RAID-5
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2003 15:17:37 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E1F3871.3010601@attbi.com> (raw)
Can someone suggest a reasonable chunk-size for a RAID-5 array that
spans 3 120GB IDE disks?
Everything I read says that I should spend a day benchmarking things to
find the absolute best value, but I don't need the best value (the array
will be storing a bunch of read-only music files), and I don't feel like
wasting a day on this.
So what values are other folks using for similar arrays?
Thanks!
