SSD=20 Sorry but what is "Rust drive partition"? At first I thought it's some software layer like 'bcache' or some other non-regular block device. Then I think I got it, but can you please leave at home your own petty cutesy terminology when asking a serious question on a serious mailing list? And yes I use a HDD+SSD RAID1 for a very long time, to get some improvement (though debatable how much) you can also mark the HDD as "write-mostly" (see man md). --=20 With respect, Roman --Sig_/9hqQiKvd41qoCRqCffm8QOK Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=signature.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAlGoUYoACgkQTLKSvz+PZwiowwCfdjkVRqOd3GkmWzUUc7R052U4 804AnRA9GvmcFq9R4dWsdcuYtpA82Zra =Lgwg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/9hqQiKvd41qoCRqCffm8QOK--
