Hello friends,
I wish to have your valuable suggestions from the community for our below scenario.
We have a very old but important server which management has finally decided to upgrade. (Hardware/OS)
The OS is UNITEDLinux 1.0 and the System Hardware is DELL PowerEdge 2550 with 2 externam Disk arrays attached.
The no of disks connected to disk array are 14 Disks (/ 69GB).
The RAID card is : RAID bus controller: LSI Logic / Symbios Logic PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 4 (rev 01)
Now we wish to upgrade the system to possibly latest SuSE Linux OS and to a new hardware. The hardware should give
us the reliability in terms of data protection and optimal speed. So maybe RAID 6 would be advisable?
Which RAID card is advisable then? The cost of the hardware is really not the factor.
Any suggestions in this regard would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Adminwork
