Should I run Optimize / Defragmentation on a RAID 0 array with L1 ram cache, and L2 SSD Cache?

Window 10 Pro 64-bit

Raid 0 x 6 1TB WD Black (6TB)
- L1 Cache 4GB System ram DDR4/3200MHZ Quad Channel
- L2 Cache <1TB NVMe SSD Samsung 980 via PCIe/M.2 Adapter.

I will say it's working like a charm.

Actually what I should say is, Should I pause the cache before running Defrag/optimizer. Or delete the cache task all together.

PrimoCache can run with most defrag programs. However, you may pause the cache to keep current cached data. Here is the link for your reference.
