  Storage questions

  Posted by Bob Vick on August 10, 2005 at 6:38 pm

  I currently have a 4bay Rorke scsi raid on a UL3D. I am upgrading the storage and planned on a Huge Raid along with a bump to a UL4D card. I am still getting the UL4D card toincrease the SCSI raid speeds but now wonder if I should go FW800 with a Tempo-X esata card to get more storage for the buck and run both at the same time?

  Is this good or even possible?

  Certainly possible, but a Huge 320 array would still be much faster than any FW 800 solution… Also Huge just started shipping SUPER SPEED arrays.. the 4 gig fibre channel arrays are EXTREMELY fast… like 500 mb/sec… might be worth the extra money to get them now and ensure that you can work in HD down the line with the speeds fast enough for several streams of uncompressed HD…
