I use a large SQL database (about 5GB+ could grow to 10GB+ or more) that several pieces of software access. What is the best hard drive solution to optimise access speed? I've been considering 10k or 15k drives in RAID0. I will make weekly backups, but the data is not critical so the array failing is not the end of the world. What matters here is performance.
 
The database is accessed by 3 pieces of software, 1 writing/reading and 2 reading. They all access the same data and need it real time, I don't think splitting it would be viable.
