It is important to keep in mind the situations in which an SSD cache will prove useful since it is far from always the case that it will make a difference. If the primary purpose of your NAS is to keep a backup that you from time to time move chunks of data to, from other devices, then the benefit of setting up an SSD cache is minimal.
