Indeed - I can certainly see the advantage of using SSD's for database I/O, but from what I know of Sandforce, it's bleeding edge tech; not sure if I'd be putting it in a production server?

I'm sure Sol will test thoroughly however.

871184 2010-03-31 20:49:00 Hehe....Just wait to get this baby is.....currently 758 connections to the database server, I have just expanded the RAID 10 array to 6 disks, however random read for these documents is pants, especially when they are encrypted and get transferred to another database before presentation to the user. It is not a highly updated database, so replication to another partition, and nightly backups will keep me safe.... SolMiester (139)
