HP E200i Controlller RAID Configuration fon Win2008 Ent, Sql Server, IIS Apps etc need opinion
- by mn
Hello,
Actually I run RAID 5 (4 x SAS drives) with
Win 2008 Ent(1x host)
Win 2008 End(3x guest)
Sql Server 2005 Std (on guest)
3 x asp.net applications (on guest)
I bought 3 x drives to create additional array (on same controller E200i, I am waiting now for confirmation is it possible to have 3 raids in same controller)
I am planning to have 2 x RAID5 (if it is possible)
first RAID 5 with all vhd files,
systems etc
second RAID 5 all data files and transaction logs
I am looking for opinion how to optimize data layer (seven drives, one controller).
