Hello,
In v8, what is the recommendation for the L1 cache with a 3TB drive with deduplication enabled ?
The server has 32GB of ram . Do I have to use the maximum possible , ie a 30GB RAM ?, or I have to leave free RAM for the deduplication?

3.5 GB per TB is recommended. I`d say that 10 GB is the maximum.
