For the first time I am considering setting up a volume with
devices of different size that is 40 4TB SSDs plus 24 8TB SSDs
and I wonder how easy it is to keep them balanced, My intended
setup is 3-way replication with sharding. Will the sharding.
Possible configurations:
* All 64 SSDs belong to one volume.
* The 8TB SSDs are split into 2 partitions of 4TB each. and all
88 4TB partitions belong to one volume.
* Two volumes one of 40 4TB SSDs one of 24 8TB SSDs.
Please let me know pluses/minuses/recommentations.
Notes: These are SSDs so 2 partitions on one is fine. If they
were HDDs I would not do that. SSD sizes are rounded.
