Hi
If I didnt know any better it seems like HP is doing something deliberate to third party SSD on the new Gen9 controllers P840 and P440. I cant for the life of me get any more the 20MB/write an 100 IOPS on 8 Intel 530 SSD. Doesnt matter what RAID-level I try. I have tried two other Intel SSD models.
So know Im left with using a P840 in HBA mode and going with Storage Spaces. So I have for now 8 Intel 530 480gb SSDs and will probably expand to 16 soon.
Im going to be running a bunch of RDS VMs on top of this so nothing insanely I/O intensive. How would you guys recommend i configure the Storage Spaces? I want to maximize usable storage but not sacrifice to much in write performance and that I can handle two disk failure.
Just use dual parity from the GUI or any reasons for going Power Shell?
