RAID 1 vs RAID 5 for db
1998-09-03 10:40:10
Hello all,
Just need some advice and scenarios, etc......
We currently have RAID 1 (mirroring) for our ADSM db and recovery log
like good little girls and boys. However, our dbs are filling up very
quickly! I would like to increase the capacity, and would like to go
RAID 5 with only 3 drives, for more security and capacity. I am quite
aware that RAID 5 does slow down performance.
So my question to y'all is: Have any of you put your databases on RAID
5, and if so, have you seen any performance degradation?
I figure I can always try it and revert back to RAID 1 anyway, but I
just would like some feedback.
Thanks so much,
Jenn
