unix - Does using different devices can be effective in IO reduction linux? -
i see have different devices on rhel box such sda, sda1 , sda2 , sdb etc. different directories lies on different file system or device/devices . e.g root directory on /dev/sda6 device . if create new directory on different device /dev/sda3 or /dev/sdb read , write head these devices same or different ?
what trying find how many read , write heads system has , associated device in way ( each device has own read , write head , write on 2 different place 2 process reduce io ) . not looking suggestion if disk drive ssd or hdd , use faster 1 . more on devices , if can used reduce overall io when used wisely .
also how found number of read/write heads on rhel box
xyz@xyz-aspire-4736z:/$ df -h filesystem size used avail use% mounted on udev 1.5g 0 1.5g 0% /dev tmpfs 296m 5.3m 291m 2% /run /dev/sda6 110g 5.5g 99g 6% /
i tried finding read capability of 2 different devices , results different them can seen below. can measure write speed ?
