I asked this question in the comments of your Lockerstor Gen 3 review and sent an email but figured I would also ask here.
After doing a fair bit of research and watching your reviews on Synology, Qnap, Asustor, etc. I recently purchased the AS6806T. I have loaded the NAS with 6 Samsung 7.6TB SSD drives and configured them for raid 5. I have also installed four Samsung 990 Pro 4TB M.2 SSDs. I have also aggregated the two 10G ports to my 10G capable switch so network throughput is pretty good. My question is will I really gain performance by creating a cache with the M.2 SSDs? Or would I just be better off creating a second volume with the M.2 SSDs?
Appreciate your thoughts!
