create a vhd on the cache drive and mount that to use as bcache 

Unraid will not use vhd for any of the usual user share functionality and Unassigned Devices won't mount it for you either. You would be pretty much on your own at the command line if you pursue this.

 

I don't really see the need anyway. You can just have a cache drive and use it for whatever purpose you want, caching user shares, fast storage for dockers/VMs, whatever. Just setup different user shares for different purposes, and configure each to use cache as appropriate for your use.

 

That is what most have always done until multiple pools were introduced for 6.9+
