Hi there,

i have build my own little NAS with TrueNAS Scale, its more an consumer-PC (not a Server), but for me, it works fine.

AMD Athlon 3000G
32GB DDR4
2.5G Ethernet

It runs only as a File and Backup-Server only for me.

atm im running 6 disks in a raidz1 not encrypted.

Accordingly i want to change my system to run 7 disks in raidz2 with full encryption.

Therefore i backed up all my data from the pool to external storages, because i have to recreate the whole pool.
Because there are a lot of Data to transfer, so im worried about to speed up the pool with some SSDs.
I have some NVME 256GB SSDs and some 128GB SATA-SSDs, which i can use for it.
I searched for it in the Internet, but my english is not that good... and i found not that many articles in german.

But my question is:
Is it worth, or will i dont see any changes in speed?

And when, i should use the NVME for Cache, and the SATAs for Log? Or the SATA for Cache and the NVME for log?
