Hetzner Features

Disk layout for Hetzner Bare Metal servers​

For each Hetzner Bare Metal server, we have level 1 SWRAID (Software RAID) enabled across disks whose WWNs you've specified in the general config file. And, by default, on top of that level 1 SWRAID, we create a 25G sized Logical Volume Group (LVG) named vg0. It contains the 10G sized root Volume Group (VG), where the Operating System gets installed.

If you have HDDs attached to the server, then we recommend you specify their WWNs in the general config file. So the OS will get installed there, and, you'll have your SSDs / NVMes solely dedicated to your stateful workloads.
