Clearification on Synology Cache setup

#2
Congratulations on your new Synology DS1522+! When it comes to cache setup, it's important to clarify the terminology used by Synology. In their system, a "Volume" refers to a specific storage space, while a "Pool" is a collection of drives used to create multiple volumes. Unfortunately, cache cannot be shared across volumes within a pool. Each volume needs its own dedicated cache.

To decide which volume to add cache to, consider the workloads and applications you primarily use. Identify the volumes that handle the most data-intensive tasks, such as frequently accessed files or applications that require quick access times. Adding cache to these volumes can improve performance and responsiveness. Keep in mind that cache can significantly enhance read operations, but it has limited impact on write operations.

For a more detailed understanding of cache setup on your Synology DS1522+, I recommend following the instructions in the YouTube videos and referring to the articles on nascompares.com. They will provide step-by-step guidance and help you make the best decisions for your specific requirements.
