PowerEdge Expandable RAID Controller 6 with MD1000 and MD1120 Performance Analysis Report
By Dan Hambrick from Dell System Performance Analysis
In depth performance analysis of PERC 6 performance with both MD1000 and MD1120 across different workload types and different RAID typestypes..
Performance Monitoring with MD3000i
By Todd Muirhead
A look at how to use smCLI scripting with the MD3000i to perform array level performance monitoring.
Storage Consolidation with the Dell PowerVault MD3000i iSCSI Storage
By Dave Jaffe and Kendra Matthews To demonstrate the effectiveness of the PowerVault MD3000i in consolidating storage from multiple servers, a test was run in which the application data from servers hosting an Exchange 2007 cluster, a web server, a database server and a file server was stored on a single PowerVault MD3000i with 45 drives. The applications were driven for 8 hours, with two incremental Exchange backups performed as well. The PowerVault MD3000i was able to handle the I/O from all these servers, supporting 500 users on a fully redundant Exchange cluster, web and database servers hosting online e-commerce at a 2 billion orders per year clip, and a file server delivering over 700 files. In total the MD3000i supplied 387 GB during the 8-hour test.
