Question

Posted

Hi, I have 2 relatively slow 8TB QLC SSDs that I want to use as a write cache. If I declare both of them as SSD drives, will data be alternated between the 2 SSDs to maximise write speed? Or am I better off just putting them into a RAID 0 using Storage Spaces?

Thankyou for your help.

DrivePool will normally write any given file to the drive with the most free space; if you mark both as SSD in the SSD Optimizer, it should alternate writing files between the two as it detects each has less free space than the other - which should tend to maximise write speed if you're writing multiple files side-by-side.
