If you're 27th largest site in the world, you shouldn't have any trouble getting large fast SSDs. Or just get a bunch of
Crucial M4 256 GB (4KB Random Write: Up to 50,000 IOPS)
or
Plextor M3 Series PX-256M3 256GB (4KB Random Write: Up to 65,000 IOPS)
Plus your whole site is perfect for sharding. Questions are pretty much independent.
- martincmartin 15y agoThe article says they're the 274th largest site, not 27th. And that's in the U.S., not the world. And as the article says, they are getting 200GB SSDs.
- petercooper 15y agoI did like that they're getting 200GB vs 300GB though. $18m in funding and still being frugal! :-)
