45Drives Tech Tip - Linux vs Windows: Comparison of Storage Performance

Рет қаралды 2,107

Күн бұрын

Every second week, we will be releasing a tech tip video that will give users information on various topics relating to our storage products.
For this week's tech tip video, Mitch and Doug talk about the results from our most recent "versus" experiment. This week, we are looking at comparing the storage performance of Linux versus Windows using two sets of similar hardware/software configurations.
Stay tuned for part 2, where we do a "blind test" to see if users can actually tell the difference when working with Linux vs Windows.

Would love to see a video about converting windows desktop users to Linux desktops

We will cover that in depth in the near future!

Lacks of context or configuration data.

So this is basically ZFS zRaid vs NTFS Storage spaces... man that's unexpected

A JBOD case for my hl15 made by 45drives would be nice.

is it possible that it is storing it in cache until the drives are no in use, and then it just puts everything on the disk in the background.

Thanks guys, great video.

This doesn't look right. Any chance the sync writes were enabled on Linux and disabled on Windows?

@dougmilburn5119 2 ай бұрын

Exactly ... sync disabled by default on windows. Not safe for many workloads.

I mean interesting would be an apples to apples. So ZFS on Linux and ZFS on Windows. Or NTFS in the backend for both. Cant compare a chached result with something from the windows side.

90% useless presentation. Show the data. Show the configuration. Business differences are irrelevant. Good guy vs bad guy comparisons make you guys look foolish.

45drives is really missing the mark with their videos. Very little info and seems cobbled together.

Did you test for how much data is phoned home from each OS?

@oscarcharliezulu 2 ай бұрын

All the data especially with cloud storage

@BillyBurtonTech 2 ай бұрын

Was just gonna recommend they do a comparison running wireshark. It's insane how much of a difference there is.

the iops for what i have seen more on microsoft to focus on more so not surprise its fast on that

@jeschinstad 2 ай бұрын

Unsafe by default is pretty shocking behaviour for a server OS.

@Starshooter216 2 ай бұрын

What about Apache?

@patrickprucha5522 2 ай бұрын

it was their effort on establishing a new paradigm. 8.1 was much better and for me 8.1 -> 10 were the best windows. Of course windows7 was perfect as well!

Hello Guys I ask this question here and not under the source video from last week as I do hope it get's seen Source Video: 45Drives Tech Tip - Our Houston UI Module Roadmap (New & Redesigned Modules Coming Soon) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eNJ4qpmanpOyo3k.html At arround 3min in the video you do mention that you will add S3 Filesharing Management based on Minio. My question now is why based on minio? Ceph does have an Objet Gateway, do you not use this directly? Or do you mean based on minio that you interact with the minio client to the ceph object gateway, I would like to hear some inputs on how you do s3 with ceph and what are some best practises. If anyone has some inputs on this topic feel free to write below.

Something tells me the older guy might have an issue with Microsoft.

@alex.prodigy 2 ай бұрын

kind of a useless comparision , i think if you are a windows/microsoft shop , you'll probably use windows servers even with performance penalties...otherwise linux all the way

@ZeZeBatata69 2 ай бұрын

Depending of what you do with the information, it's not useless.

This video is so detrimental to the reputation to the company. I’ve done my fair share of disk subsystem performance measurements. The data shown here is so shallow, that after this video, I will for sure not buy something bigger from you. If you make good single shelf hardware, stick with that. If you don’t want to compete with NetApp, EMC, and Co. fine. In any case, if you have higher quality data, please fix this video.
