Firstly can i thank you for your speedy reply and help.
I have a couple of follow ups if you do not mind which i guess will need another thread.
Hopefully the 1st question is a quick answer, the second i think will deserve its own post.
I am keen to to get my server running today but i noticed in my manual if i have a IVME in slot 3 it stops 2 of the SATA ports.
One of these has a SSD 500gb plugged which i use for caching (i have a PCI SATA card coming tomorrow to rectify this issue)
Q1 Will Unraid run without a Cache card for a day?
Q2
Due to my cache being 75% full i have added 2 x 1TB IVME's to add to caching pool but would like some advice how to configure in relation to my shares.
So on my upgrade i will have 2 x 1TB new nvme cache drives plus (when i connect tomorrow) the original SSD 500 gb.
