Hey experts,

I am going to put together my VSAN for VSphere with some existing PE R920's. I was wondering if I could throw 4 of the newer 12TB 2.5 SAS drives in there and get 24TB of usable storage. Has anyone tested the new drives for performance? Its also the slower 7200RPM drives.

Thanks!
Perry

You can count the performance with the help raid calculator:
