It's been pointed out to me that the email address I supplied below is
incorrect.

 

The correct address is trushforth AT winnipeg DOT ca

 

If anyone was kind enough to respond to the invalid address, I'd
appreciate if you could resend to the address above.

 

And for those who have been wondering, I have not got any responses
(perhaps if I could type properly ....).

 

If I get any responses, I will post the results to the list.

 

Thanks,

Subject: SATA reliabilty

 

Hi All:

 

For anyone that is using SATA (or ATA) systems with TSM can you share
any reliability and performance info?

 

Either directly to me trushfoth AT winnipeg DOT ca or to the list?

 

We're using a lot of disk only backups (but SCSI) already so I'm not
interested in the TSM setup on disk only reliability and performance
issues.

 

If you are using SATA:

-          how many TB

-          size of drives

-          RAID setup

-          how long have you been running

-          # of failures

-          Time required to rebuild a drive

-          performance

-          vendor

 

Thanks,
