Hi all,

i noticed Sandisk has a ReadyCache SSD which will act as a kind of (software-assisted) L2ARC for Windows machines.
I'd like to upgrade my FreeNAS setup with a SSD L2ARC in the future, but i'm unsure about the ReadyCache SSD's; i'm kind of trying to choose between a normal Kingston SSD and said Sandisk product.

Are they basically the same (and usable in FreeNAS) as a normal SSD, or are they different from the 'plain' SSD's?
Anyone has any experience with these ReadyCache products? Reason for choosing the ReadyCache would only be the lower price (and the fact that 32GB is more than sufficient for me).
