Comment on Is this a good first homeserver?

2 of my 4x 4TB spinning drives are portable. 2 in mirrored raid, and on-site backup, and an off-site backup. If you don’t have it on 3 drives across two sites, you don’t have it.
The other specs seems fine, but I personally upgrade my desktop then take the old CPU, RAM and motherboard to use for my server.

How do I do that with the SSD cache? Everyone just talks about it, but I can’t find any documentation…

I’m using bcache, and I’m using btrfs as the filesystem on top of it. I’m not sure that the way I’ve done it is considered best practice anymore. The discourse online is a mess because the landscape keeps evolving.
