PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Yes i was surprised - maybe the slowdown comes if the files get fragmented - dont know - but as they are effectively being used as Archive drives then maybe i wont
Guest asrequested Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 I've been thinking about creating a backup pool on my HTPC. Maybe I'll do that, down the line.
PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 i Think you said you had two pools already - so that would be a third?
Guest asrequested Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 i Think you said you had two pools already - so that would be a third? Yeah, but the third would be on a different machine.
PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 21, 2017 Posted February 21, 2017 Ah - more money have been considering the same as i think you can use cloud drive to a local share/other pc as if it was the cloud while they sort the bugs out with Amazon etc

I don't want to use the cloud, I'll need to buy more data.

Swynol 375 Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 very nice. i have a new switch on the way with 2x sfp+ ports so might use them down the line
Guest asrequested Posted February 22, 2017 Posted February 22, 2017 very nice. i have a new switch on the way with 2x sfp+ ports so might use them down the line I want to compare SFP+ to the 10G cards I have. From what I read about those cards, they require less power and use less of the CPU, and lower latency. Other benefits, too. 1
PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 23, 2017 Posted February 23, 2017 Will be interesting to see what you find with the sfp+ cards as i have read about latency being better on SFP (well its the fibre vs copper) especially over short lengths
Guest asrequested Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Write speed from my Samsung 950 Pro NVMe to the Crucial SSD, 465 MB/s. Time to buy one for my HTPC, for faster transfer to the server. It's such a hard life, having to buy so much tech! 1
PrincessClevage 175 Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Write speed from my Samsung 950 Pro NVMe to the Crucial SSD, 465 MB/s. Time to buy one for my HTPC, for faster transfer to the server. It's such a hard life, having to buy so much tech! these PCI cards are the go for performance 1.6TB in size"sequential read performance of up to 2.8 GB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 1700 MB/s. Intel SSD DC P3600 Series delivers very" http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/solid-state-drives/ssd-dc-p3600-spec.html

PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 wow! they are expensive - enterprise drives from the looks of it with the associated price - will possibly last longer as a result but i guess we would probably replace most of our kit before it wears out - or the next must have tech comes along for me the 960 pro is cheaper and faster and with a cheap adapter can be used in a pci-e slot if you do not have a NVME m.2 slot free
PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) That's great write speed. Now i can get ~230 MB/s as a burst and 215 on a regular basis (and thats with 2 files copying at same time)! Archive drives are not bad at writing LOL just got 286 MB/s for an extended period Edited February 24, 2017 by PenkethBoy
Guest asrequested Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 The two SSDs and the SFP+ cards, arrived today. I'll get the other M.2 SSD next week. I'm hoping I can get that 465 MB/s over the network, once I get it all in.
PenkethBoy 2068 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Nice I assume you are referring to the Whiskey sorry Bourbon
Guest asrequested Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 Nice I assume you are referring to the Whiskey sorry Bourbon Actually, It's wine...but hey! It's alcohol, lol I'm just putting the SSDs in. I'm having a few BIOS issues
CBers 7450 Posted February 25, 2017 Posted February 25, 2017 @ What size (U) is your cabinet? Just bought a 2U rack server case, motherboard bundle, SSD etc, but need to get myself a cabinet.
