Konni Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) I added a NVMe as a cache pool. Now, I am thinking about having a cache parity as I realized I really love the quick reaction time of access of data in the cache pool. I want to put my some important shares that I need on a daily basis into the cache pool. The problem is, that I only have one NVMe slot on the mainboard. I could buy a PCI-e M2 adapter (I have one PCI-e 16x slot on the board which is a Z590i) and the same m2-drive. That would be quite costly, though. I still have a spare SATA SSD that I could use as parity. However, SATA SSDs are much slower than NVMe. I guess the NVMe will be limited to the SATA SSD speed if I added the later to the cache pool as parity? Thank you in advance for answering. Edited December 16, 2022 by Konni Quote Link to comment
