SSD cache wouldn’t be useful I think. I’m under the impression at least I wouldn’t see any faster transfer speeds, since the cache is really only effective for accessing the same small amount of data repeatedly like a web server. I’m rarely if ever doing that. So I saved some money and went to github:
I’m using a UGREEN USB adapter to get 2.5. Almost zero issues, except I have make sure to update the driver before DSM updates. I’ve had instability the one time I updated DSM first.
Oooh nice- I have one of these too, but haven’t put in faster Ethernet yet. I’m gonna wait until all my network equipment gets a bump first.
The card you put in- is it the one that’s paired with the ssd cache card or something else?

I’m on the same page with you about cache. Thanks for the tip though, I’m gonna look into this!!
