I noticed there is a delay in loading the new movies/spotlight images when I launch my player (MBT or Kodi). I also notice a delay when going into the movie details, the cover may take a second or two to load. I am guessing this is due to all my 5500 RPM drives trying to catch-up at first launch.
To make this faster, I was going to install a small SSD into my new server build and store all my media images and metadata on this drive. Before I start this process I had a few questions I was hoping to get some input on:
Has anyone tried this and does it help? Will I still be able to set this (Metadata path) centralization option up, when I move over to FreeNAS?
