Hey everybody. I'm new to unraid and find some of the concepts and UI very interesting. But on the storage area I'm a little bit a classic guy. I would like to have an classic raid-5 scenario with unraid. I know there is some raid-5 option within unraid, but I don't like that fuse concept and that I can only get the max performance of a single disk. That's why I would like to have a classic raid setup. But what I do like, is the concept how unraid uses NVME or SSD's as cache. I tried with TrueNAS with that SSD cache you can build on ZFS, but that is not very performant... thats why I would like to try unraid. I tried to use mdadm, but unfortunatly that does not seem to be installed(although the packages are contained in the bzmodules image). Additionally I found a link on how edit an UNRAID image - https://wiki.unraid.net/Building_a_custom_kernel - but that doesn't seem to be valid option anymore... maybe some of you have some ideas on how I could make it work to add e.g. mdadm. Also I would like to use a partitioned NVME as a cache, is that possible too?(from cli maybe) Additionally, is it possible to start a second array pool containing other discs? After I created one array, I wasn't able to create a second array on other discs from the UI but maybe i missed something... Thanks
