November 16, 20169 yr Been reading thru the forum and want to get a 2nd, 3rd or 4th opinion.... Currently have 1 small SSD cache drive, want to create a cache pool with 2 larger spin drives; have dockers on current single cache drive. If I add the 2 spin drives to create a 3 drive pool, let it balance, then remove the small SSD and balance, I should not lose any of the dockers on the cache... is that correct. Thanks...

Theoretically, as long as your BTRFS file system is in good shape to start with, you are correct. I wouldn't try it without a backup strategy in place, the community applications appdata backup would be a decent place for that.
November 16, 20169 yr I would not do this either without backing up my data first. I would copy the data to the array, a drive share from unassigned devices, or just any other storage available then I would put the cache drive(s) aside, do a new config with a completely new cache, and then copy the contents over. Did just that moving from two small ssds to two 1 tb ones.
