Hi,
I'm new to FreeNAS, and despite my efforts to find the answer, I still have mixed information.
I've got FreeNAS 9.1.1 running of a 4GB USB. Then x3 1TB drives in a zpool raidz setup. Leaving me with 2TB space. Transfer rate to and from the server is great, getting max speed for my 1Gbps network.
I have a spare SSD drive, 60GB, and was wondering if I could put it to some use in my FreeNAS, as a cache device or log. But apparently you cannot use cache or log in a raidz config? Is this true? If so, what else can I use to SSD for to improve my NAS setup?
Thanks, any advise is much appreciated.
