Bcachefs is an File System that can use an SSD (or NVME) as a cache for a normal drive. Does anyone know of any other file systems that can do this?

Fascinating idea imo. Could bring life to some of the throw away SSDs you might have to slap in between you and your spin backup drive.

intel optane and amd storemi software does this. earliest software that comes to mind was readyboost shit they offered in vista that used a usb drive to supplement ram. Ofc linux had it's cache and journaling file systems long b4 you're watching a better hardware tuned evolution of that
