What is the optimal disk configuration for a database server and what raid configurations would you ..

Answer / Garib Nath Yadav

The optimal disk configuration for a database server depends on various factors like I/O requirements, read/write ratio, and storage capacity. A common setup includes using RAID 10 (also known as RAID 1+0) or RAID 5 for the data disks to provide both redundancy and performance. For the log files, a dedicated RAID 1 mirror is recommended for improved durability. If budget is not a constraint, consider using SSDs (Solid State Drives) for faster read/write speeds and RAID 6 or RAID 50 for higher storage capacity with redundancy.
