I had bcache + btrfs (RAID1) before this but it was a huge waste of space because bcache had to cache two identical copies of the data in order to be effective (since BTRFS and bcache don’t communicate and BTRFS picks from a random disk); that’s half as much cache.
With Bcachefs everything is integrated so it knows to cache only one copy in RAID1 (and it doesn’t even need to hold two HDD copies, the fast/“cached” copy counts). Data is read from the fastest source and every resource is best utilized.
