I have a DS920+ full of 16TB HHDs. I am considering adding a DX517. Is it possible to move my HDDs into the expansion unit and maintain the existing raid while installing SSDs into the original four bays? Does it make sense to put the HDDs in the expansion because they connect over a single eSATA cable? Does it make any sense to try and optimize like that considering all of the NICs are 1gb?
