[Help] SSD Cache & System

Post by Yann75 »

Hello,

Sorry if the question has already been answered, made some research but I am not 100% sure. I am evaluating buying a T4 424 as my next NAS and I am wondering about SSD. My understanding is that with TOS 6 you can now install the system on SSD if you install 1 or 2, but then the SSD can no longer be used for cache. Is it the correct ? The only solution would be to have one SSD for system (no redundancy) and one for cache ? Is it possible ?

Thanks

When two SSDs are installed, you can use one SSD for caching and the other for the system installation. The remaining space on the system SSD can still be allocated to create storage pools and volumes for data storage, but it cannot be used for caching purposes.
