I'm wondering what kinds of numbers I can expect to see, particularly for sequential read and write for a JBOD setup on the Dell HBA330 card. Any one care to share their speeds? Or give me a wag about what (8) spinning drives can do hanging off one of these cards? Sure, you want to know what file system is pooling the drives. Well, tell me what will give the best speeds. I suspect that ZFS is the direction I'll go but would love some other suggestions. (btw, I'm looking at SAS drives in the 4-8TB range so probably somewhere between 120-200MB/s write speed).
