Hello all, I couldn't find any review so I tought I might ask here
I am building a ZFS (NexentaStor) SAN (RM31616/X9SCM/1230/16GB/M1015@9211-8i/Intel 10GBe CX4 & 520 SSD for caches) for my XenServers and I was thinking about buying 10x 1TB Hard Drive like the Seagate Constellation SAS:
1- Available now - 16MB Cache ST31000424SS - 150MB/s sustained - 347Gb/in2
2- frequently B/O - 64MB Cache ST1000NM0001 - 147MB/s sustained - 324Gb/in2
All the remaining characteristics looks the same (6Gbps SAS - 5th generation Seagate - Warranty?)
Would the difference in cache size be noticeable?
Now if I could decide between mirrors, z1 or z2 ....
