SSD Cache not available in TOS 5.0.12

Post by Enigma55 »

I just updated to TOS 5.0.12 and I was able to now get my remote folders to mount successfully, so thank you! I am still having problems though with being able to create/enable an SSD cache. The screen for SSD Cache no longer times out on me, but everything is greyed out and it only says SSD cache not created. I have attached some screenshots of my settings and the different screens that may be of some help in understanding why I can't create a cache with my SSD drive which isn't part of my current volume.

Which version did you install before and was it possible to enable SSD cache in the previous version?

I have been installing each beta version as it is released so the previous version I had was TOS 5.093. I have never been able to get the SSD cache to work under the TOS 5 beta. I was able to get it setup and work just fine under the previous TOS 4 software.

Hello, what type of storage pool did you create? How many hard drives are used?

It's a RAID 5 BTRFS 4 disk array. Hard Drive 1,2,3,5 are all 16GB Seagate IronWolf Pro drives that make up the array and Hard Drive 4 is a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD. Here is a screenshot that may help. As I said, I had no problem setting up a SSD cache before the TOS 5 beta. Now it won't even let me enable it on the volume or create it on the SSD cache screen.

Did you update from TOS 5.0.93 to 5.0.120? If yes, please try to reinstall TOS 5.0.120 to see if this issue still exists.

Yes I updated from TOS 5.093 to 5.120. I just updated now to TOS 5.123, but I do not notice any difference with the cache settings and and still getting the same screenshot issues posted above. If you want me to reinstall the TOS OS how should I do that and what difference would that make with fixing the SSD cache issues?

Please wait for the new version, we are going to release a new update very soon.
But this time, you need to reinstall the new version, the system permission has been changed from the beta version.

5.0.124, fresh install, does not allow to setup SSD Cache.
Any updates on that?
