Hi Everyone, Question i have my containers and Vm's on a Nvme drive if i mirror it to a Sata ssd do i get the performance from the Nvme with backup fom the sata or em i seeing it wrong?

Still pretty Noob and it would save me a buck since i gave a spare sata.

If you pool it "the usual way" (aka RAID 1 / Mirror), you will degrate speed to SSD level because writes have to be done on both of the drives.

So "the lower lance wins" (for those who still know the game "Joust").

 

Obviously this is NOT what you like to have...

Came here to find a solution to this for similar but different reasons.  Obviously I think we could use some other features. but having a full Hot Swappable, if even slower hdd to backup to at leisure and restore a new nvme or ssd from... maybe i'm just not seeing the built in functionality....
