Hi all

Wouldn't RAID 1+5 be better with the operating system and programs on the
RAID 1 parttiton and the cache on the RAID 5. This is common with Exchange
because of Transaction Log based design of it? I also believe this to be
Microsoft recommendation for genericWindows 2000?

Please feel to correct me if I am msitaken.

Bye for now.

Paul Lemonidis.

Hi, I had installed ISA in a server configured in Mirrored Volumes Hard
Drives.
I have read in Tom's book that it is better to use RAID 5 Volumes, this
because the access to the cache drive is faster, because it doesn't have to
write in two drives the same information.
Recently I have noted a slower access to Internet in my clients, although I
have incremented the percentage of RAM used for cache.
Do you think that I will get a better performance if I reinstall the hole
server, this time in a RAID 5 volume? or is there another way to solve this
without reinstalling the hole system?

Thanks.

Armando Treviño L.
