Hi,
I am building a FreeNAS server for a client to be used for video editing.
He has an iMac Pro with a 10GB network card so I am trying to get the best for his budget.
Here are the specs of the machine so far:
- Asrock B450
- Ryzen 3 2200G
- 32GB DDR4 PC2400
- 6 * 4TB WD RED drives
- 1TB ADATA NVME drive
- 500W Seasonic PSU
- 10GbE Intel Ethernet adapter
I am planning on setting up a 6 drives RaidZ2 pool and use the 1TB NVME drive as an L2ARC device.
From what I understand, with the RaidZ2 I should be getting good write speeds but poor read speeds which is why I am adding an NVME drive as an L2ARC.
Can I expect 500MB read/write speeds in this scenario or do I need an SLOG device as well?
Thanks!
