I have been researching building a new server for a while now. Just wondering if anyone is using Hyper-V with replication?
What I am looking into,
2 x Servers with Hyper-V, possibly Ryzen 5 2400G, 32GB, HPE Smart Array with 1GB read cache (raid 0 for each disk), 10Gbe.
1 x 5Gbe NIC per server dedicated to replication via crossover.
Identical disks per server, 12TB, 6TB, and 4TB disks.
Windows VM with Stablebit to pool the disks with no duplication.
Hyper-V Replication to replicate/snapshot/sync the underlying VHD files from one server to the other every 5 minutes.
If a disk fails I believe I should be able to change the disk, start the replicated server and resync back to the failed drive.
Anyone else done this before with large slow storage?
