SSD Cache Partition

[mullen47]

I know the answer before I ask (Everything remotely out of the ordinary seems to be overlooked in this OS). I have a 1TB SSD drive installed along side my RAID5 array (3x4TB). I thought I could partition the SSD and use part of it for caching the other raid array reads and the rest as JBOD, its a bit of a waste having 1TB cache. Alas i cannot find any way to do a simple disk partition in this OS. Is there any way? Can I force one through command line?

I'm not aware of any way to partition a drive. But this isn't specific to ADM as I'm pretty sure that it's not supported by Synology or QNAP either.

Cheers for the info. Tempted to try to create partitions outside the gui with parted and see if it will be recognised as a valid drive for the cache, anyone tried this?
