I just saw this all in one idea here on the forum:
http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1621544
II need something like it. ts for websites in production. Any one any recommendations for what 2 buy. I have not thoughts about price, but max size should be 3 units. Maybe I missed a page with all this info, then please guide me to it. The read perfomance is important, higher is better, but not for all costs.
From the link:
His hardware spec:
If you want to build your own system, i can use and can recomend the following sample config:
Use a Mainboard with Intel server chipsets 5520, 3420 or 202/204
I always prefer Supermicro mainboards from X8-.. or X9.-- series ending with -F for remote mamagement,
Use always Xeons and a minimum of 12 GB RAM, with SuperMicro X9 you may need an additional Intel Nic
If you use/add an SAS controller based on LSI 1068 chipset or LSI 2008 (ex LSI 9211-8i) you have it running without pain.
Cheers
