I read and watched your reviews on various NAS devices which ultimately helped my decide on the Asustor 6704T, great stuff and many thanks!
My question is: I remember seeing on one of your reviews a comment about setting up the M2 SSDs to run in RAID 1 (mirror) for data security.
With this in mind my thinking is 4 hard disks (2x 10Tb new HDDs, and 2 older, existing 6tB HDDs I already own) which will be setup as 2x RAID1 (mirror) for data security, as well as 4x 1Tb Samsung M2 SSDs.
The Samsung M2 SSDs I was planning to setup as 2x 1Tb RAID1 mirrors; one for the ADM OS/software and one as a cache.
Is this a sensible setup? Data security is most important. I won't be using this NAS as a file or media server, only for backups.
