RAID 60 VS 6 VS 10

Hi,

Have new R515 with 12 hard drives, 2TB each. Server is going to be a web server with SQL server as well as MySQL.

Would you recommend Raid 6 or 60?

From what I have read, 60 is the best as far as security of data is concerned.  However, I have already read that Raid 10 is the "sweet spot" for RAID right now. What to do?

I have far more space than I could ever use!

Hi Greg,

There is a RAID board in the servers forum that might be the best place to get help with this question. Hope that helps.

Thanks.  Finally decided to go with Raid 60.  So far so good!
