I looked at the idea of getting a cache SSD as a PCI-e card. I looked at this thread on EnhanceIO, bcache and dm-cache and then at derived articles.
I heard there were problems with one of those project, bugs, no maintenance. I'd have to find the mail...
I tried that. not easy top recover in case of something failing, not that faster
Why bother with a SSD cache when the whole system can fit on the SD?
I have 7 TB in use.
online?
Yes, in my desktop machine. Four hard disks. Originally 500 GB each. Now two are 2000GB, one 3000GB. One 500, which I had forgotten, apparently. Plus 3 external SATA cables. One SATA caddy that doesn't work, reason unknown. I don't think it is the cable.
I have the 480 ssd for dayly use, a 5Tb usb Hard drive for archiving purpose, connected but switched off most of the day, and two other 5Tb usb drives elsewhere as backup of the main one (not to speak of 5 Tb total hosted drives on the net)
most large are video files
Yes... I have several virtual machines, can be 20 GB each. Actually less. Photos, videos, isos... -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
