Hello,
i would like to add two SSDs to my NAS as cache drives. How would i do that in TrueNAS-13.0-U3.1?
The only thing that *seemed* promising was a thread from 2018, but the linked documentation in there doesn't exist anymore, and i can not find the mentioned options.

Specs of my NAS:
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X
RAM: 2x8GB 3200MHz
Mainboard: Aorus B450 Pro
GPU: Nvidia K2000
SATA Controller: BEYIMEI PCI-E 4X to 6-Port
HDDs: 6 x Seagate Ironwolf ST4000VNZ06
SSDs: 1 x Patriot P300 for OS
2 x Samsung 860 Pro 250GB( the ones i would like to use for caching)
PSU: BeQuiet PurePower 11 500W
I am scared to just click "Expand Pool" or add "VDEV" without proper confirmation that it will just add the drives as cache, and not reformat everything.
Thanks in advance.
