I've been running full node on a server with this config:

• Centos 7
• 11 Tb hdd raid-0
• 32 Gb ram

and I'm using geth 1.9.15-stable-0f77f34b

I'm trying to be archive node but syncing took over 1 months despite I had database dumps since january but after one month I still stucked in january blocks. So I don't think that I could ever finish syncing. I even tried --syncmode = full and that did not help neither.

Status of HDDs:

And it's R/W speed:

command:    
    hdparm -Tt /dev/sda4

result:

  /dev/sda4:
  Timing cached reads:   25122 MB in  1.99 seconds = 12633.44 MB/sec
  Timing buffered disk reads: 786 MB in  3.00 seconds = 261.86 MB/sec
———————————
command:
  sync; dd if=/dev/zero of=tempfile bs=1M count=1024; sync

result:
   1024+0 records in
   1024+0 records out
   1073741824 bytes (1.1 GB) copied, 0.648344 s, 1.7 GB/s

Also folder size is about 3.6T right now.

How can I speed up this or is it ever possible to finish syncing with this server?
