Expert advice needed,technology for network to disk recording, 1+ Gbps

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

Is there any other internal storage technology than RAM that can achieve 1Gigabit or more write performance coupled with concurrent reads?

The use case is the following:
Many (100's) threads capturing IP input and writing to a filesystem , combined IP ingest being in the 1Gbps+ range.

This will be "continuous" write,so i doubt SSD could fit the requirement.

My analysis is that RAM is the only internal device that can cope with this requirement , however i'm not an expert in storage area.

Moreover,Is there any filesystem issues to be aware of ?

PCI-Express based ssds could do the trick.

Short of that, you could try adding ssds to a pool to get enough throughput.
