Hardware RAID is much less of a necessity nowadays than it was before. There are multiple options for highly performant/redundant storage, be it localised to a single box or across multiple boxes (such as ZFS or Ceph).
- stephen_g 3y agoYes exactly, between ZFS and Ceph I'm not too worried - and at the bleeding edge, NVMe is just changing the game completely because the drives are becoming so fast that they need their own dedicated PCIe lanes, so you don't want to bottleneck it through an HBA in any case, and the HBA just increases access latency.
