AS6510T M2 / Cache drive

Post by c3t3HSJS »

Hello!

https://www.asustor.com/en/online/Colle ... ?topic=202

I am trying to understand how the m2 / cache drive works.

Are these slots only available for cache or can the slots be used to provide network storage as well and is this an exclusive setting.


Like 2x 2TB M2 NVME SSD
use partition 2x1TB as a Raid1 as a drive
and an other partition 2x1tb as a rw cache?

If NVME drives are used is there any limitation or caveats on the system in general?

You can use M.2 device as cache or create data volumes onto M.2 devices (if ADM version is the latest one). Yes, it's an exclusive setting.
When you create volumes onto M.2 devices, you can only select M.2 devices, rather than partition. It means that ADM OS will create partitions automatically. It will occupy whole selected device (similar to HDD).
