DRBD isn't much slower than the native disk performance, provided your network is fast enough. So the question is less about DRBD's performance as it is about the performance you need from the storage. If a standard SATA drive's performance is fine, then it's all you need. -- Digimer Papers and Projects: https://alteeve.com
