We are running SQL6.5 and plan to upgrade to SQL2000. I'm wondering what's the best stripe size for the RAID 5 configuration. 8,16,32 or 64 kb.
The database is 90% used for read actions. Only during night complete refill of data and write actions only for statistics. Any advise is welcome on this subjectSince SQL server pages are 64K the raid stripe settings must also be set to 64K|||SQL 6.5 uses 2k pages and SQL 2000 uses 8k pages.
The stripe size of your RAID drives does NOT have to follow the page size, however I would use a RAID stripe size >= to my page size.
