Hello
I've got a Synology DS918+ setup with 4x16TB Iron Wolf Pro HDDs on a RAID5 setup. I recently bought 2x Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1TB PCIe M.2 NVMe SSD for caching in order to speed up my Plex Media Server metadata loading times. When I initially installed them, I observed a speed up in loading times, however it is now back to the slow loading times that I was experiencing them before.
Is there anything that I need to do other than installing the drives and setting up the drives as Cache devices? How can I speed up the loading times?
