Let's say I want to have 10GB of Memory on my node but I can only afford the following configurations, which one do you think would perform best?
Both servers will have the same specs except for:
Server1: 7GB RAM
6xSATAII RAID10 (3GB SWAP partition)
Server2: 8GB RAM
4xSATAII RAID5 (2GB SWAP partition)
Which one would you choose?
I know RAM is a lot faster, but RAID10 is supposed to be a lot faster for writing and copying which is what is needed for a SWAP partition.
Tell me your ideas.
