Hello there,
so let's assume I use 4x 2TB WD Reds (2x RAID I) for storing documents and media I want to keep safely.
- Where do I install FreeNAS when I additionally want ZFS cache? On a second SSD? So 1. SSD = Cache (Write + Read) and 2. SSD = FreeNAS?
- Where do I install plug-ins like Plex Media Server (or Apache with Wordpress) for best performance? Same SSD as FreeNAS?
- Is the idea to run Plex Media Server form the FreeNAS' SSD and access media on the WD Reds then?
- I was reading something about installing FreeNAS on USB Sticks. Isn't that slow as hell, even with USB 3.0? And where do I put the plug-ins then?
