So I've been doing a lot of work on my pool lately and am reminded that green drives are well...green and slow.
So I have about 5-8 extra SSDs laying around that are all 60gb. I know I could speed up writes if I used the SSD optimizer add-in (files are written there first and then copied to the pool later). However, these SSDs are small. When moving a 40gb file, that's basically one/drive.
If I were to hook them all up, softraid them via Windows, could I then add say 480gb of raided SSDs to the Pool as the feeder drive?

Any problems with this? Thoughts?
