Hey Guys,
i plan to build 3node SW with flat disks and hyper-v on it. Which RAID level i should use on nodes for img files? Is JBOD or RAID0 sufficient/recommended or RAID10 is required?
Thanks

In the case of 3 node configuration, you can surely go with RAID0. You will get an incredible storage performance while redundancy is granted by having 3 mirrored copies of your data provided by StarWind.

According to the best practices, you will have to get 1TB SSD space for L2 caching. 10xSAS are already quite fast (moreover in RAID0) and I would say it is not necessary right now but might be considered later when you will need to quickly boost your existing performance.
