I'm looking to have my unraid server rebuilt in the coming months with a new drive configuration and was wondering if this is possible.
Hardware:
2 - 2.5" HDD - 5TB each
4 - 3.5" HDD - 24TB each
4 - M.2 NVME - 2TB each
1 - M.2 NVME - 4TB for HDD cache drives.
1 - Asus Hyper M.2 x16 Pcie Card v2 (for 4 x 2TB NVME)
Proposed configuration:
looking to have 3 data pools configured.
Pool #1 will have 4 x 3.5 HDDs for long-term storage (with 1 parity disk)
Pool #2 will have 4 x NVME drives for short-term storage and fast daily disk access (with 1 parity disk)
Pool #3 will have 2 x 2.5 HDDs for temporary files (disk mirroring configuration)
The cache NVME would be configured for the 2 HDD pools only (is this possible or would I need a second cache drive for the 2 HDD pools?).
Thanks in advance for your support.
