To improve performance, Immich recommends using SSDs for the database. If you have a pool made of SSDs, you can create the `pgData` dataset on that pool.
Thumbnails can also be stored on the SSDs for faster access. This is an advanced option and not required for Immich to run. More information on how you can use multiple datasets to manage Immich storage in a finer-grained manner can be found in the [Advanced: Multiple Datasets for Immich Storage](#advanced-multiple-datasets-for-immich-storage) section below.

Immich can use multiple datasets for its storage, allowing you to manage your data more granularly, similar to the old storage configuration. This is useful if you want to separate your data into different datasets for performance or organizational reasons. There is a general guide for this [here](/docs/guides/custom-locations), but read on for the TrueNAS guide.

This is useful if you want to separate your data into different datasets for performance or organizational reasons.

As described in the [Setting up Storage Datasets](#setting-up-storage-datasets) section above, you have to create the datasets with the **Apps** preset to ensure the correct permissions are set, or you can set the permissions manually after creating the datasets.
