Hello,

 

i'll try to improve our I/0 Perfomance. We have a raidgroup with 16 disks (SAS), 1 aggregate and 1 volume (dedup enabled). The volume is the storage for 100 VM's on the VMware Cluser (access via NFS). Does it make sense to increase the raidgroup?  90% Percent of the Disk I/O are Read Ops, so i'll buy a PAM Card for our FAS3240,too.

 

And what's your Experience with the Raidgroupsize of a Raidgroup with SATA Disks (now: 11+1)?

 

Thanks and greets !

 

Steffen
