Migrating to VectorChord - Storage Type
Hi all! I'm editing my
docker-compose.yml file to update my Immich components and I see there's a new settings preset option:
I'm running Immich on a Synology NAS, with a RAID 5 setup, containing 4 enterprise-grade HDDs.
So technically I'm running on HDDs, but they have vastly different performance characteristics than a "normal" HDD.
Should I still use this preset? What settings does it apply to the database?
Thanks in advance!6 Replies

Successfully submitted, a tag has been added to inform contributors. :white_check_mark:I think that even bad ssd have higher IOPS than really high quality enterprise grade (whatever you want to add here) HDDs
So IMO I would still set HDDs but I might be wrong about what this setting really changes for the database
Yeah definitely. Whatever HDD you'll find it won't even get close
Oh, it's IOPS related? I thought about throughput. Makes sense.
Thanks! 🙏
Yeah that's the important part for databases; small random accesses
You can obviousy get decent sequential throughput out of a RAID of HDDs
