Raid array for SQL

Raid array for SQL

 

  


Hello All,

Our company going to buy new server to use as SQL server.It will have 8 Disks 72Gb each.
Our engineers think to use "Raid1 plus 0" and build 1 huge virtual disk.
Currently we have RAID 1 built on 6 disks so it is 3 disk available.

Each database has a few File groups : disk1 - data1.mdb; disk2 - data2.mdb + index1.ndf; disk3 - index2.ndf + tran.log

I have put in different files tables (each more then 5'000'000 records) which offen used in a join statements and it really improved performance.

How it will work on "Raid1 plus 0"?

Regards,

Natalia
