F FujitsuUser2007 New Member Jan 9, 2022 #1 Hello, I got a Fujitsu Server with 2 SATA and 4 SAS HDDs. On wich HDDs should I install Windows?
M marce Well-Known Member Jan 9, 2022 #3 i would say: depends on the size of the hds and the desired workload of the system. (if you have 4sas-disks with each 128gb and 2 sata-hdds with each 8tb using the satas for windows might not be the best idea...)

Thunderbyte Moderator Staff member Jan 10, 2022 #4 Kick the SATA HDDs, put in 2x Sata SSDs and set up a Raid1 with them. Use the SAS HDDs. They would offer more bandwidth for the SSDs (12 instead of 6Gbits/s), once the OS is loaded, there is however not so much need anymore for high OS bandwidth.
