Limit with number of path.data?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Hello

I have 24 NL-SAS disk drives with 4TB per disk.

This will sum up to 96 TB but after doing some studying with cluster sizing, I understood allocating 96 TB per data path will not be a good idea.

So, my choices will be,

  1. Split the RAID groups (RAID 0 or RAID 1+0) into smaller size between 4 TB - 6TB.
  2. One big RAID 1+0 but splitting the partition using lvm. Each volume size will be 4 TB - 6 TB.

In either case , I will need to create multiple data path but would there be any limit with the number of paths?

Any advice is appreciated!
