to put it simply: local storage
We use Dell R710 in pair, each with 6 15K SAS Disks and RAID 10 - iSCSI or NFS can hardly be faster
But "faster" is not always the way to measure things.
In this topic, I think that raw disk access speed is not a critical value; I've tested our setup with maildir on NFS and performance is close enough to local disks. Given this, I prefer the extra features our NAS/SAN setup gives us, like having data replication between phisically separated disks in a couple of clicks ,redundant paths to data, easier management, ...
Joseba,
Could you share how you have configured Dovecot in order to achieve replication, redundant path .....?
