Hi,

It is said that the NAS can only have up to 1000Gb of cache. Does it mean that you can add up to 2 M.2 SSD of 500Gb each at max ? Or is it 1000Gb per SSD ?

Also, can I add NVMe SSDs as cache ?

Thank you !

The cache sizes are per slot, so two M.2 with 1TB each is fine. Furthermore, according to the synology website is the DS918+ also compatible with 2TB M.2  SSDs. => https://www.synology.com/en-global/compatibility

Not sure what you mean by the second question.. Yes M.2 NVMe drives are supported if you mean this. => https://www.synology.com/en-global/knowledgebase/DSM/tutorial/Storage/Which_Synology_NAS_models_support_SSD_cache
