## Iopsstor vs Capstor
28+
29+
`iopsstor` uses SSD as OST, thus random access is quick, and the performance of the single OST is high. `capstor` on another hand uses harddisks, it has a larger capacity, and it also have many more OSS, thus the total bandwidth is larger.

model training normally has better performance if reading from iopsstor (random access), checkpoint can be done to capstor (very good for contiguous access)
