Hi.
I currently have a 15x drives pool in windows server 2016. 2x 6tb. 11x 3tb. 2x 2tb. Currently run out of space and planning buy some new drives.
I planned buy 3x 8tb wd red drives.
But currently I have bad read/write performance.
Having some advice for me to rise the performance of my pool?
Upgrade to windows server 2019?
Create a new pool with some specific config?
Use ReFS?
Change OS?
Buy NVME drive cache?
I want security like RAID6, easy to add drive to pool and better performance.
Currently ~10-50MBps read speed.
The main purpose of my server is for Plex. So 50MBps is not so good when many transcode at same time.
The rest of my specs.
2x opteron 12cores
16GB ram
2x Gbits network
1x asus spike raid controller
1x hba sas2 8port controller.
With a tiny 120GB SSD os drive.
Thank you for advice.
