Given that simple (?) IDE drives can burst data at up to 133 MegaBytes per second, it's highly unlikely you have a gigabit connection to the internet.
As such, can you write why RAID in this case?
Bob
My web server machine has 4 SATA drives.
1x120GB, and 3x80Gb.
The 120GB has /, /boot, swap and all other system folders. Remaining space is unused.
Swap is 8gb, equal to 2 times the ram.
The other 3 sata drives are setup in raid0 for speed.
The raid array will be mounted on /mnt/raid and will contain all dynamic data.
Questions:
1. Instead of one large 8gb swap, should I create 4gb on the single drive, and another 4gb on the raid array?
2. I've seen people create several raid array on the same set of drives. E.g.
md0 = sda1, sdb1, sdc1
md1 = sda2, sdb2, sdc2
md3 = sda3, sdb3, sdc3
Is this multiple raid config better than the single setup I have?
TIA,
Richie.
