I'm building a SuperServer 6035B server (16 scsi drives). My schema has basically two large tables (million+ per day) each which are partitioned daily, and queried independently of each other. Would you recommend a raid1 system partition and 14 drives in a raid 10 or should i create separate partitions/tablespaces for the two large tables and indexes?

Thanks
Gene

Chenbro has a 24 drive case - the largest I have seen. It fits the big
4/8 cpu boards as well.
