  media cache disk size and speed

  Posted by Neil Christian on April 20, 2014 at 3:05 pm

  I have built my first editing PC. I have a RAID0 for my media drive with a sequential read speed of 350MB/s. I will have the media cache on another drive but before I buy it I was curious to know if anyone has an opinion on whether the speed of the drive is important. If I bought a drive with a read of 150MB/s will that keep up with the media drive during work or dose the media cache drive need to be the same speed as the RAID to create a balanced system.
  The second question was what do you think a good ball park ratio for space needed is? If the media drive is 6TB should the media cache drive be 6:1-1TB, 12:1-500GB or smaller meaning it could be economical to have a SSD.
