I am setting up an Areca-1231ML with 8 1-tb hard drives in Raid-6. I am stuck debating which stripe size to use. Usually I use 16k stripe size but I am wondering if what would be the best performance for being able to stream data off the server to multiple PC's at once? I am really looking for optimal balance of read/write but if I had to lean one way it would be read performance.
Thanks.
Thanks.
