bionicrocky Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I'm building out a new unRAID server. I have 3x 3TB 7200RPM, 1x 1TB 7200RPM, 1x 1TB 5400RPM, and 1x 3TB 5400RPM, and 2x 250GB SSD drives (using up stuff I had lying around). From a performance standpoint, am I correct in assuming that using the 5400RPM drives for parity is going to be my best performance option overall? My primary uses, if it is helps, are Plex, SmokePing, and Speedtest Docker images, iPERF3 server, running a few tftp backup scripts a night that transfer ~60MB, and using Veeam on a Win10 VM on the cache drives to backup my ESXi environment. There will be several large (20-100GB) file copies every night for the Veeam backups. Please feel free to let me know if I've left out any needed information or if there is an existing document on this that I didn't find in searching! Link to comment
