While bcache is a great technology, this is not what I need here. |

On this box NVMe will be the only storage and / will be placed |
| 14 |
there. All other data will be NFS-accessible over 1 Gbps link. |

I have thoughts about caching NFS using filescached, but limited |
| 17 |
durability of the drive (400 TBW warranty for 512 GB size) restrains |
| 18 |
me here. Probably I'll use it for caching only in exceptional cases |
| 19 |
(e.g. slow remote mounts like AFS), but with 64 GB RAM I doubt I'll |
| 20 |
need additional NVMe-based caching, at least for now, with time |
| 21 |
this may change of course. |
