I recently upgraded the motherboard in my NAS, mainly to get a usable IPMI experience, but also because my previous X9 board was getting kind of long in the tooth. The new board is running fine, so woohoo. But it has two onboard m.2 slots that I'm not using, and I'm wondering what I might do with them.
Main usage of the system is SMB (mainly with macOS clients) and some NFS sharing (Linux clients) from a pool of spinners. I run apps on a mirrored pool of SATA SSDs. I don't use iSCSI, and I don't store VM images via NFS.
So, what can/should I do with two m.2 slots? I've thought of:

So, what can/should I do with two m.2 slots? I've thought of:
- L2ARC
- I'm not clear on how to interpret the output of
arc_summary, but it's included below
- I'm not clear on how to interpret the output of
- SLOG
- I don't think any of my usage involves sync writes, so this seems unlikely to benefit
- Special VDEV
- I'll admit I don't understand these, other than that it woud be an irreversible action since my pool consists of RAIDZ2 vdevs
- Move the apps pool
- ?
