I would like to know your opinion on the viability of a SW RAID 1 powered Xen node. The CPU is a i7-920 Quad core, 2.66Ghz, 8MB cache and 8GB of RAM. The 2 HDDs are absolutely normal (no raptor, 10k-15k etc - just normal SATA) and there's no HW RAID. I was thinking to allocate some 70% of the resources to VEs and the rest to the node itself. Can this be done reasonably? Adding HW raid would mean an 60% price increase which would lead to 60% more VEs on the node. Would the 60% increase in VEs count but with HW RAID be preferable over the SW RAID with less VEs? Thanks a lot in advance for any knowledgeable feedback. _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users |
