PV Distribution



-Edge, middle, center, inner-middle, inner-edge. These are the different regions where a logical volume can live. Using different distributions will give you different types of performance. 







Example:

-Put things that need fast, sequential access on the edge.  This moves the disk media under the read head at a faster rate.  Though, the outer edge is slow at random access because of the distance the read head must move.

-Put things that need fast, random access on the inner edge, the read head needs to move less to find data on this area.
