      Thats what I thought too. So if I wanted to make a major upgrade to these servers it would be better for me to use the SSD I already have for cachecade RAID1, then buy 4 2.5" 6Gb/s 15K 300Gb drives for a RAID5. That sound right?

        Very likely. But we aware that CacheCade is read only acceleration. It works great, but only helps writes by getting reads out of the way.

          @scottalanmiller Ah yes. I forgot that its a "hot data" caching system. I dont know if that is particularly useful for me.

            Intel has started calling Blind Swap - "Surprise Hot Plug".

                No idea. But it is decently clear.

                  Because you're surprised when you blindly swap the right drives?

                    The system is surprised, to say the least.
