The most optimal nginx + ssd config?

Question

Nginx

I have a 1TB HDD machine and 500GB ssd, I plan to use ssd for cache from HDD in order to quickly give statics
, how best to set it all up? you can examples or manuals, I will also take into account any articles thanks

Answer 1

Install OS and nginx with host on ssd. Put the folder with /images or /media on the hdd and a symlink on it. After downloading the files, transfer it to the hdd.
If you need nginx to store statics there, then read the nginx manual on how to specify the folder for the cache.

Answer 2

Caching with Nginx

Answer 3

From experience, small on SSD, large on HDD, OS on HDD.
Caching on Nginx is possible, but you need to think about regular cleaning + large fragmentation, which is generally not so bad on an SSD.
