Hi,

Normally when making an array, I'd like to use all disks all same speed,=20
interface, make and model but from different batches. In this case, I've no=
=20
choice, so we have multiple 1TB disks some 7.2k some 5.4k. I've not mixed
them like this before.

What effect would this have on the final array? Slower than if all one or t=
he other?
No effect? I'm expecting the fastest access will be that of the slowest vde=
v.

Similarly some disks block size is 512b logical/512b physical, others are=
=20
512b logical/4096 physical, still others are 4096/4096. Any effect of
mixing hardware? I understand sfs sets its own blocksize.

thanks,=20
