i was looking at tomshardware.com and the fastest disk is
Maxtor Atlas 15K II * 8K147S0,SAS,147 GB, 16 MB Cache,15000 rpm
with 5.5 ms random access time.
So even if i switch to those disks i can only reach a perfomace gain of 1.5,
right?
To achieve a better disk performance by factor of ten, i need a raid-10 setup
with 12 disks (so i have 6 raid-1 bundles). Or are there other factors with
high end disks?
kind regards
Janning
