On KS-LE, I got Debian 11 :
Question for fellow 16TB club members:
Thoughts?
JBOD/LVM group might be a better choice over raid-0 if you want the full space,s o that you won't lose all data. sacrifice potential speed gain though.
raid-5 only might help if you do the right thing in case one disk fails (IMHO simply replacing and rebuilding is not it ;-))
What would the right thing be? Evacuating any necessary data at once instead of risking a rebuild?
Don't be a pussy. Raid 0
yeah, at least that's what I would do. ideally even prioritize your data on copying out.
the thing with the rebuild on those large disks is, that the risk is quite high to come across an unrecoverable read error, which will then push your raid over the final edge and render it useless anyway. so you would not have gained anything from running raid-5 after all.
instead I'd first try and recover as much data as possible by simply transferring it out (yes that means, you'll need storage for that, at least temporary) and only then start rebuilding the raid.
Ordered SYS-1-SSD-32, it's doing just fine.
Also, it surely beats the Kimsufi BF deal with Intel I5-2400 (two years old), so I will switch my development activity to this one. Thanks for the links.
IMO, I'd go with RAID-10 (total 8TB in use) SYS-2-SAT-32(64) because these disks are quite new . In SYS-1, I'd go with (3-way+1-spare) or (4-way) RAID-1 because of old-school disks.
Thank you, finally managed to order a few after trying for a while. Guess I can cancel my SAT-1! All of them have the 16tb, so ended up pretty lucky there. Also got the 1541, so I'm feeling like I won the lottery!
Lost my hope on SYS-2-SAT-32 in BHS and ordered SYS-1-SAT-32 instead.
@david_W : Could you post your infos about disks?
Not qualify for the 16TB club..
Old-school disks, then. SYS-1-* range is well tolerant to purchase, but old-school disk is a cons.
@TheBrokenBee Updates plz
No delivery yet. I’m going to fucking lose my shit if I don’t get that 16TB.
Does SYS-1-SAT-32 in BHS have free IPMI?
I believe all of these do
Still waiting for the sys2
I had to wait for a few days and was worried too, but I ended up getting 1541 and 16TB, with free IPMI! Be patient, good things will come to you
What location?
France, GRA to be exact
Yes, I was actually using IPMI to debug some issues.
Their system is kinda weird, I pay for server its delivered fast, Im paying for 1 additional IP and it's been almost 24hours and they still need to verify payment
4 hours past... any updates? I got an update from their support on a non related issue pretty fast over past couple days and last one being midnight EST!
I’m not sure you’re going to get administrative support over the weekend.
Y> @Nekki said:
No delivery today?
Depends on the hold up. If they’re racking more servers and you’re in the queue, maybe. If there’s admin to do, probably not.
Fucking hate weekends.
If it's any consolation, I'm idling all of my BF dedis like a fucking champ right now, in your honour.
Woooooo
