In a two (physical) drive mirrored system what would be the impact of putting each drive on its own scsi channel when using a two channel scsi u2 controller? Would this reduce or eliminate the write bandwidth penalty? Again, assuming the same setup - would vinum just alternate drives on successive reads or... or can vinum read concurrently from both drives? I am attempting to decide whether to implement mirroring or simply split data files and system/swap files between drives. Space is not an issue. I have mild concerns regarding redundancy but want to minimize performance losses in a small system which will employ a SQL server with a moderate size database. Reads/writes will occur on a 98%/2% ratio but relational joins will occur continuously. Any advice would be appreciated.
