Hello
I am going to plan a NAS and iSCSI storage for an VMWARE ESXi.
The Freenas Server will have the following hardware:
- AMD 4 Core Processor ~2,3 GHz
- 8GB ECC RAM
- 3 1,5 TB 7200rpm hard drives
The freenas server will only be used to store files and make backups. The iSCSI storage will be used for about ~3 VMs.
But i have the following question. Which filesystem should i use? Und what RAID System? With 3 HDDs i think Raid5 would be useful.
Does andybody have experiences with 3 HDDs and their performance?
Thank you
