    How is the Media Server package? On the ReadyNAS, the ReadyMedia / MiniDLNA app started to choke on my files after the collection got a bit large.

    I'm still learning about the cache drive options-- my typical use of the NAS will be to backup some desktop / laptop computers, stream MP3s or play MP3s via SAMBA shares on my LibreELEC Raspberry Pi, occasionally watch some family mobile phone videos (h.265), and possibly run some VMs to practice some coding-- Would I benefit from installing NVME Cache disks at all? Even at the recommended minimum of 2.5% of my volume size? I'm confused why the KB proposes 2.5% of the volume size, but the whitepaper says to only bother with the amount of actual hot data used because whatever space is leftover is used as cold storage. Is the SSD Cache Advisor useful? Anyone have issues with its recommendations?
