Hi, good afternoon.
I'm going to create a new 4×4 TB RAID 6 on a P440 4GB controller, and after a while I have to add more 4 TB disks up to a total of eight disks.
When I create the RAID I get the screen to choose the band size/duplication size, but I don't know which one I should choose, as the data to be stored is quite small (between 2MB and 3MB the file size).
I would like the reading performance to be higher for a database, and also to minimize the latency.
Should I choose the default configuration, or should I choose a smaller size? As for the file system, I'm going to incorporate NTFS, and I don't know what format I should incorporate either.
Thank you.
