How to size your bandwidth for your storage subsystem | The 2-5-9 Rule

In this video, I'm going to show you how to size your bandwidth for your storage server build. People often ask me questions like: "Do I have enough bandwidth for my storage setup?" "If I upgrade to SAS-3 HDDs, do I need to upgrade my LSI HBA SAS controller?" I usually answer these questions using the 2-5-9 Rule. This rule comes from the reference performance limits of the 3 types of SAS/SATA storage devices. For spinning HDDs, these typically max out at around 2Gbps. For SATA or SAS-2 SSDs, these typically max out at around 5Gbps. And for SAS-3 SSDs, these typically max out at 9Gbps. Hence, the 2-5-9 Rule. Using this information, I'll walk you through an example with a 24-bay Supermicro 846 SAS-2 expander backplane (BPN-SAS2-846EL1). Hopefully this video helps you guys figure out if your hardware is sufficient for your I/O bandwidth needs! :-) Timestamps: 0:50 - Explaining the 2-5-9 Rule 8:57 - Example with BPN-SAS2-846EL1 backplane 15:41 - PCIe bandwidth considerations Links to videos mentioned: Cost of SAS vs SATA Hard drives -    • Cost of SAS vs SATA Hard Drives | Sho...   How to understand performance -    • How to Understand Performance | bandw...   If you'd like to support this channel, please consider shopping at my eBay store: https://ebay.to/2ZKBFDM eBay Partner Affiliate disclosure: The eBay links in this video description are eBay partner affiliate links.
