Dear SPM'ers,
A question concerning computer hardware once again.
Reviewing previous emails regarding this issue I found a mail from Joe
Devlin (14.02.00) where he recommended RAID arrays for further acceleration
of analysis. Is it worthwhile using them if the RAM is big enough already
(e.g. 1GB)? Can anybody comment on how much faster this systems really are,
and which RAID level should be used?
Does anybody have experience using a RAID array (of level 5) under (Suse)
Linux? Are any RAID arrays on Intel-based PC's are properly supported by any
Linux species?
Any comment would be highly appreciated.
Thank you,
Christine Preibisch
