So, anyway, im down to a single 160GB drive. Cant really decide whether to buy another old/quite-slow 160GB, or to 'demote' it to a backup/spare drive and get a new larger high-speed, low latency, larger drive, but that would cost more.
Also - @Copperwings - I've read that the max size for the ISR SSD caching is 64GB and that with drives over that size ISR will partition the drive and only use a maximum of 64GB. So there must be something in place to allow you to use an SSD partition. I'll (hopefully) report back with how I get on.
Thanks again for your help
