i search the ideal configuration

Post by orbi »

hello all,

I currently have a 2TB regular hard drive, and a 1TB SSD with a 30GB free partition, and a 512GB NVMe with a 60GB free partition.

I'm looking to speed up the regular hard drive and SSD in reading by using the NVMe as much as possible, hence the 60GB partition on the NVMe.

But I'm also looking to use the partition on the SSD to speed up the regular hard drive. I thought maybe using the 30GB partition on the SSD for writing (or reading writing).

I haven't found the ideal configuration yet. Data on hdd are not sensitive, data on ssd are sensitive.

What do you think ? Which one do you think is the ideal configuration? I haven't found one that allows you to use both the nvme and the ssd to speed up the hdd.

Thank you for your advice.

When SSD/NVME is used as write cache, its write wear will increase and its lifespan will be affected. Therefore, if there is important data in its other partitions, it is not recommended to use it as write cache. I suggest you just use the free 60GB on nvme as read cache for the HDD.
