Hi all,
I was going to set up an old SSD as a cache drive for my friend's HDD, however its speed is only 220MB/s while the HDD tops at 175MB/s (127% faster).
1) Will the fact that an SSD can do multiple tasks at once still help over just the HDD alone even if the MB/s isn't very high
2) or does that ability even factor into HDD to SSD caching?
Both SSD and HDD have around 8000 IOPS but the SSD is 127% faster at reading and writing (difference of 45MB/s)
Thanks
