August 6, 20232 yr Unraid should give its users the ability to "split" a cache disk with specific settings or limits per unraid-share. For example, a ZFS cache disk named "cache" of 2TB raw disk-size. Two shares may exist with cache as primary storage, secondary storage is the array for them. One of these shares is a heavy use media share. The user only wants "media" share to consume a maximum of 400GB out of the total 2TB disk. I was thinking this could easily be achieved with ZFS quotas and a dataset that's a children of the 2TB disk.... but I do not think unraid FUSE knows about zfs quotas etc... so that's my feature request... allow your users to fragment a cache with limits that are not based off the raw total storage of a cache disk but user-default prior to sending writes to secondary storage.
