Centos

I have a Rootserver 4x2TB Sata2
Currently their is just 1 HD mounted and on this their is every data. (1TB)
I use this server as streaming hoster and currently i have the problem, that the I/O waittime is allways 100%.
I think the solution is to create a raid so i have better read speed.
I dont want to lose any data on the first HD, so should be doable without loosing data.

Hi,
The best way to proceed would be to set up a RAID10 array. The problem is that there will be downtime when setting this up and I will need access to rescue mode for this
Please let me know if you are interested.
Thanks
Did same task for a client 2 days back. evne LVM on raid. So ready to do it for you. Just check PM. In your case system require a a reboot so prepare for a small down time.
Thanks

Is it IO throughput, read, write or both ?, number of IO operations ?. Big files, small files ? These things need to be assessed before one can decide on a proper solution.
I can setup that with native OS tools (mdadm, as another contestant said) and may even add LVM on new storage layout. I'm certified as a RHCE (well-suited for the job).
Server reboot will be needed, so for your MAX convenience, I suggest you to get near your system (just in case you need to connect a keyboard for booting and such). I can align to your local time (I'm in GMT-3).
