Motherboard SATA on the Cheesegrater classics is only SATA II, so you get better performance with a SATA III PCIe card, and tehr using a card with on board SATA drive mounts, or replacing the optical drive with a mount kit or an install kit in the existing SATA bay space. ... but still much slower than going with M.2 NVMe drives, but yes that needs an upgrade.

I'll check on the disk cache, I thought I set it much larger than default years back.
After you mentioned the SATA III PCIe Card, I looked into these OWC
Accelsior PCIe Cards, but they don't mention that it's SATA III. Do yo know?
