I have a networked iSCSI volume that is cached via PRIMO Cache

movies are very large files with sequential read, likely not going to benefit from caching

this is how I use it for a iSCSI volume for my STEAM library, hosted on a NAS (TrueNAS CORE)

thanks and happy 2025

I think you don't understand something, writing on the HDD is as fast as the speed of that HDD, the SSD can only act as a buffer - the bigger the SSD, the bigger the buffer and it gives you more time until it gets filled
the only thing I can think of to accelerate writes on HDDs is to have a RAID10 ...

you absolutely can, I use a NVMe drive to cache an iSCSI volume that I host on my NAS
50/50 read/write
