Where can I find the HDD Tier List?

Cheers & thanks for the support. We love that you love them.
With the FireCuda, you technically can put them in RAID or use an Intel Optane module. You just likely wouldn't see as much result as you'd hope for, the idea behind RAIDing 2x FireCudas being that you'd hope it would "stack" the SSD caches of the 2 drives and give you double the SSD caching performance effect, the problem is the firmware & controller don't really know how to do this. Same concept applies to using an Intel Optane module with the FireCuda. If you're going to be investing in an Optane module, it may actually just be a more cost-effective solution to pair it with BarraCuda because of how the firmware works together.
