Hey guys hope u are both doing well. I need a little advice regarding which drives to get for caching so this is the breakdown
NAS = TVS-872X (has 2x Firecuda 520's in the M.2 slots in RAID1 for apps)
QNAP QM2-2P10G1TA (Will be used as cache card)
My objective is to purchase 2x 500GB NVMe drives to be used in RAID1 for caching in the above mentioned QM2 card which only has 1000MB/s of bandwidth so I dont need to go crazy for the fastest drive.
Which drives would u recommend for caching purposes that wont break the bank given the 1000MB bottleneck but which should be just fine in terms of efficiency & durability?
