October 11, 2025Oct 11 I have a 6-bay HDD NAS that I'd like to buy the Starter license for - It's perfect because it's for "up to 6 storage devices."But what if I want to add an SSD cache? Does the SSD count against one of those storage devices?Thanks in advance.

October 11, 2025Oct 11 Author Thanks for the reply. I would like an SSD cache but imo it's not worth an extra $60 for it for my application. Cheers.
October 12, 2025Oct 12 Community Expert Just to clarify, ANY storage devices that are plugged in at the point the array is started count towards the licence limit even if not configured to be used by Unraid. Drives plugged in afterwards on a temporary basis (such as removable drives used for backups) do not count.
