Yes, I know some from performance logs I've gathered, but I didn't mean for this discussion to dig that deep, as to analyze everything down to IOPS. Maybe I didn't phrase my question correctly. I was simply trying to get peoples opinions on what would be the best solution in that price range. I'm not building the Taj Mahal here so I didn't think detailed info was necessary.
But I get if you don't want to voice anything on uncertain grounds. And that's okay, thanks for the opinion you've shared thus far!
Would anyone else like to add anything?
