This suggests at the very least 10G ethernet and a high-performance RAID system with lots of memory. This is not the stuff that people normally use in their homes or small offices. You may want to consult a professional because the costs of this are more than you probably want to risk.Thank you Stan!Just imagine what it would do if you started from scratch with 20 of the Black drives in md/RAID6 w/a 32K chunk, and XFS tuned to the stripe. You'd easily hit 1GB/s streaming reads, with streaming writes probably500MB/s. Depends on your CPU. I forgot which one is in the Asus board.Now this is the system I want to put together 1GB/s streaming reads, and 500MB/s writes - please recommend the hardware for me to the tee as I dont want to go wrong anywhere :-) Thank you all!
