When tuning for performance, the segment size can make a noticeable difference. The segment size is the size of each transaction in kilobytes between the disk controllers and each physical disk. This can be changed under Logical Drive -> Change -> Segment Size.

Rules of Thumb:<\/p>\n
\n- Smaller segment sizes allow more IOPS\n
- Larger segment sizes allow for more raw throughput, but lower IOPS.\n
- For oracle, with the default 8k segment size, use 8k or 16k segment sizes on the FastT\n
- For environments with large files in filesystems (especially sequential access) use 128k+ segment sizes\n
- For web servers or servers with smaller files, use 32k to 64k segment sizes\n
- For databases in general, try to match the size of each work unit to the segment size\n<\/li><\/li><\/li><\/li><\/li><\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":null,"protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-san-notes","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rootuser.ninja\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
