This cluster would be expanded to a maximum of 15 servers in near future.<br />
<br />
What do you suggest, a JBOD or a RAID? Which RAID level?<br />
<br />
15 servers with 12 disks/bricks in JBOD are 180 bricks. Is this an<br />
acceptable value?<br />
Multiple raid6 for each servers? In example, RAID-6 with 6 disks and<br />
another RAID-6 with the other 6 disks. I'll loose 4 disks on each<br />
servers, performance would be affected and rebuild times would be huge<br />
(by using 2TB/4TB disks)<br />
<br />
Any suggestions?<br />
