Spinning HDDs are faster than this as well, 250-300 MB/s sequential read seems common per drive, and in a home setup you might have a couple of those in a RAID-1 giving 500-600 MB/s read BW.
- justsomehnguy 5y ago> couple of those in a RAID-1 giving 500-600 MB/s If you are talking about only two drives than no. Multiple drives can give you more throughput, but at that point it is RAID-10.
- fulafel 5y agoRight, for 2x single stream sequential read throughput + redundancy I guess you need somehing like Linux f2 RAID10 mode. Otherwise reading every other stripe per disk would kill you due to seeks or 50% wasted readahead.
