unRAID HD Allocation Question


Go to solution Solved by trurl,

Recommended Posts

I am looking to create something and I want to make sure unRAID is able to do what I am looking for. 

 

2x 14TB Parity Drives

5x 12TB NAS Drives

1x SSD Cache Drive

2x SSD Application Drives

 

I understand where the Parity, NAS, and Cache Drives go and do inside unRAID, but is there a way for me to have the SSD Application drives separated from the clustering. I do not want the SSD's as part of the RAID allocation. 

 

Is that possible?

You can have multiple pools outside the parity array, 'cache' is the traditional pool like this, but you can have others named as you wish. You don't even have to have a pool named 'cache'. Each pool can have multiple disks if it uses btrfs raid. All pools are part of user shares.

Thank you. I understand and see how it works. I appreciate it.
