We are looking to move an old 640 with 72 8gb disks to a new low end
system. CPW should be no issue, but I'm concerned about disk IO
performance in these 520+/515/525 systems.
I had hoped to go with an 8 disk system (CEC only), but from what I've
read in the archives, you need an expansion box to be able to use a
better RAID controller. How much of an improvement would a 0595 and
something like a 5777 actually make over the integrated controller
(w/5727 cache) ?
Does the new power 520 offer anything better ? Is the integrated SAS
controller much of an improvement ? Can we put a better RAID directly
in the CEC ?
TIA,
Keith
