So I just upgraded my FreeNAS box to have a 10Gbe to my primary workstation and was wondering if there was any way to guess or estimate how many drives would be needed to come close to saturate read and write to a RaidZ2 Array. I would guess saturating write would be easiest using a ZIL cache (maybe 250gbx2 raid0) but not sure what would be the best to saturate read. I currently get around 180MB/s over the link.
FreeNas Specs:
CPU:i3 4130T
Mobo: ASRock E3C224
RAM 32GB ECC ram
Raid Array 1: 3x2TB WD Red RaidZ1
Raid Array 2: 4x3TB WD Red RaidZ2
HBA:LSI LSI00244 (9201-16i)
Intel X540-T2 10G Dual RJ45
Workstation:
CPU: i7 5820k
Mobo: Asus X99 Deluxe
Ram: 32GB
GPU: GTX980
Storage: 950Pro 512GB (drive being used to saturate 10gbe)
850Pro 256gb x2
NIC: Asus ROG 10GB Express (Direct connect to Freenas box)
