What kind of storage for 6xHyper-v severs 2012r2 (iSCSI 10gbit?/Fibre 8/16Gbit???/MS storage spaces with JBOD???)
I´m using 6x the same servers (2xcpu,32gb,8x146GB/10rmp sas 3gps,HW raid adaptec 5805,3xPCIe 2.0,4x1gbit NIC,2xPS) with 2x Windows 2012r2 server with Hyper-v and 4x Hyper-v server 2012R2 software for +-25 virtual machines (webs,sql,ftp,exchange,systemcener,linux,freebsd...) running on this hypervisors.
I have on each server 2x146gb in RAID1 for boot and 6x146GB in RAID5 for DATA.
I want more more spaces for VM VHDs (now 6x680GB) and want speed up migration VMs (now about 110 MB/s) and deploy Hyper-v cluster.
I need external STORAGE !!!!
My three ideas for buy:
1) 6x10gbit intel x540t1/t2 network card, 10gb switch Netgear ProSAFE XS712T/XS708E and SOME STORAGE 24x2,5" with 10gb NIC? or
2) 6x8gbit SAN HBA, SAN 8gbit switch (preffered used from eBay) and SOME 8gbit STORAGE 24x2,5""? or
3) 2xclustered Windows file server (sas3 raid controller, 10gb nic) with storage spaces on JBOD (sas3,dual expander) - supermicro 216BAC-R920LPB??
and "starter kit": 4x480GB SSD (2x RAID1), 4x900GB 10k (1xRAID1), 6x1TB 7.2k (1xRAID5).
Is this idea good?
What is better for me: metalic / fibre / or storage spaces for now and future???
What brand and model storage would you use?
I need help!
