Hi guys i have dell 7910 work station this machine will be used for color grading with resolve with. Right now i have 2tb two hard drives in software raid but i am getting meh disk speeds WRITE 246 READ 250. I primarily work with 2.5k raw files but soon will graduate to 4k files I have one gtx 1080ti 11 gb and another one on the way with 32gb memory and 2x xeon cpu 2.4ghz.
My workstation has on board SAS raid controller now what i have understood is that i can only use dell certified SAS hard drives i have found 2 of them on ebay 3TB 7.2K SAS Hard Drive 3.5'' DELL SERVER so buying two that are 6 tb each will this give me better speeds?
Or stay away from dell HD and purchase raid card like New LSI 9260-8i 256MB SAS SATA 8-port PCI-E 6Gb RAID Controller Card with external raid box like TowerRAID TR5M6GNC - 5 Bay eSATA 6G Port Multiplier JBOD Tower
