Thanks! I'll look into the link you posted and set that up. The redundancy I don't think is important in my use case but I will do some digging and see what I require and decide from there i may even be able to get a 3rd drive into the PCIe slot as a L2ARC drive for the time being so I can test how the boot drive is going/see the benefits of using a m.2 for meta data

I have recently setup my hex os nas and my mobile has 2 m.2 slots currently both are populated with 256GB drives as I had a heap from old machines. I set it up so there is a redundant boot on the second drive. Is there a better way to set it up? Can it be used as cache? I have a spare 1TB drive, that any better? I saw somewhere about potentially using an m.2 to hold Plex thumbnails etc to make it snappier than from reading it direct from the HDD array, is that a use case? If so how do I go about it?
