option turned on, particles will be automatically copied to and read from the SSD path specified. Furthermore, if multiple jobs within the same project require the same particles, the cache will be re-used and the copying step is skipped. If more space is needed, previously cached data will be automatically deleted. Setting up an SSD cache is optional on a per-worker node basis, but it is highly recommended. Nodes reserved for pre-processing (motion correction, CTF estimation, particle picking, etc.) do not need to have an SSD.--ssdpath
