Don't think I've posted to the list before, so I should introduce
myself. I've been working with the Imperial HEP group since April,
alongside Simon Fayer.
We're looking at buying some storage, and I wondered whether other
sites had settled on some (more or less) meaningful benchmarks when
evaluating storage hardware? Having looked in the list archives, the
subject seems to have come up several times, without a definitive
answer beyond the usual suspects (fio, bonnie++, iozone etc.).
It may well be that there isn't a definitive answer, but I thought I'd
ask anyway.
Best Wishes,
Adam Huffman
