Guys

I'm looking at moving our Squid servers, where cache is currently
configured as 4 x 9G on 4 separate disks, to new hardware with 2 x 18G
disks set aside for cache.

Is it preferable, from a performance perspective, to configure cache on the
new platform as 2 x 18G areas or 4 x 9G? Or no difference?

TIA
