Large files and SSD Cache - Question/feature request

$

Problem

 

I have my nightly backups (Veeam) for each machine copied to my DP server each night but as these files created by Veeam just grow in size over time (no shrink option other than restart the backup history?) they become very large.

 

Recently a single file was getting into the 200GB range before i reset the history (i.e. start again)

 

When the files are updated they are stored on my NAS and then copied to my DP Server via SyncBackPro 

 

The copying is fine and not any issue.

 

Question

 

When the backups are copied to my DP server they tend to fill up the cache (4x 256GB drives with real time duplication) then a rebalance occurs sometime later and the data is moved to the archive drives - this works fine.

 

So is there anyway for large files to bypass the ssd cache and get written to the archive disks directly (accepting the copy might be slower) without disabling the ssd cache for "other" files

 

I guess i am asking for an exception list for the ssd cache by size/type of file?

 

I dont think this is possible but would like to be proved wrong :)
