April 8, 20224 yr I am completely redoing mu Unraid server and have some questions about cache configurations. I have: 1-1TB NVME SSD 2-used 400GB (Intel DC S3700 enterprise SSDs) 1-250GB SSD (Samsung 840 evo) 1-180GB SSD (Intel 520) 1-128GB SSD (Crucial M4) I Will be using unraid mainly for network storage, Plex (mostly local network streaming 4K, possible transcoding) and the *ARRS. I want to get into some tinkering with linux in VMs. I was thinking: Cache 1 - 1TB NVME SSD - app data share, plex meta data, VMs and VM disk drives (I feel like these app/VMs would benefit form the speed) Cache 2 - 2 400GB intel SSDs (mirrored) - *ARRS share, media share (I feel like *ARRs will have a lot of read/writes but don't need nvme speeds. plus save the HDDS from spinning up all the time. Cache 3 - 250GB DDS - all the other shares. use cache 2 for app data share and plex meta data? should I use the 400GB Intel SSDs separately? Cache 2 and 3 How would you set up the cache pools and shares usage? how would you setup the cache setting and mover? I will be using cache backup app saving to a not cached share.
