Multiple L2 Cache Volumes
Posted: Wed Aug 08, 2018 3:39 pm
Other than creating a hardware-based RAID 0 stripe of multiple SSD drives, is it possible to assign more than one SSD as a L2 cache for a Cache Task?
The reason I ask is that I just finished building a rather large (72 TB) pool of 9 drives, and giving it just 1 TB as a L2 SSD cache is not nearly large enough. The price point on larger SSDs is not good, so I was considering giving it several of them to use with the L2 cache in a single Cache Task for both read and write.
