I have uncovered a youtube video dedicated to accelertate storage with SSds in Windows 10. Have anyone attempted this setup?! Or would Primocache offer the same results?!

Yea ive done this with storage spaces in windows 10. Works failry well. 

 

Id really try to just get a large ssd if you can, must faster than tiering in my experience.

I use Primocache because using tiering through storage spaces or powershell would have meant wiping the disk and I don't have anywhere to backup all that data to.

 

Strange things happen on the two systems I use Primocache on but I'm not sure if Primocache is the cause. On my desktop it will randomly crash the OS and clear out the cache, on my server it will randomly disconnect the drive being cached.
