It would be great if we will be allowed to attach not only 1 physical (or logical drive) to one node but 2 or more It can be used to increase speed of read\write\iops cap (dividing one blob between several hdds) increase redundancy without using raid controller and software raids use smaller hdd…

second node- additional memory-cpu-device-power usage. second drive- just add drive. node operators who are hosting nodes on single devices like raspberry pi or for server nodes- they don’t need this feature- i fully agree with that

CPU and power usage would be pretty similar for two nodes (on separate drives) vs one node (split on two drives). The node also does not use a lot of memory - it could be important for a RPi, but not a Windows PC. It takes time to develop and test a feature. I’m sure Storj has better things to do (…

dynamic drives on windows and storage spaces for server OS. it was just an idea that won’t be needed to implement in the near future but can be coded sometime &) i personally host over 30 nodes and need this feature from time to time

[image] vladro: dynamic drives on windows and storage spaces for server OS. Not that. I used something that created an aggregate drive. Basically, if I had F:\a.txt and G:\b.txt, both files would appear on X: drive, but I could also find them in their own drives. In my case F: and G: were ne…

I think while there are workarounds to using RAID, we see a lot of SNO’s taking the path of least resistance and just setting up multiple nodes on separate hardware to use multiple drives. Your average user probably doesn’t understand what a RAID is or how to go about implementing it ideally. And…

And get RAID0 at the end? :-1: Thanks, no. Such combination from the storage service and OS-related function is not viable - with one disk failure, the whole node is dead.

[image] Knowledge: I think while there are workarounds to using RAID, we see a lot of SNO’s taking the path of least resistance and just setting up multiple nodes on separate hardware to use multiple drives. Isn’t that the recommended thing to do? One drive = one node. While there have been d…

Sorry for double post, but I just thought of something - maybe just make multinode setups easier? I do not know how easy or difficult it is now I would use another VM anyway). A node operator wants to add another drive. Instead of doing a RAID0 or whatever equivalent, the node software just spins u…

its taking care about another OS and some additional recourses. and installing new node- its new vetting period

regarding this article: Low io piece storage by liori · Pull Request #13 · storj/design-docs · GitHub maybe using 2 or more hdd’s for single node can be a solution for iops issue

2 or more hdds for single node
