Want to add six (6) 200GB SSD in MD3220 without SSD Cache Feature Key

I have three PE R820's (Dell 6 Gbps SAS HBA) attached in duplex mode to an MD3220 and MD1220. The MD3220 has 24 x 900GB 10k RPM SAS 2.5” HDD configured in RAID-10. Unfortunately, I do not have the Premium Feature which would enable SSD Cache.

I have a chance to purchase six (6) Dell P/N 6R5R8 (SanDisk LB206M) 200GB 2.5” 6Gbps SAS SLC SSD drives for a great price. I don’t plan on creating a separate disk group on the MD3220 just for these SSDs.

Can anyone tell me if it’s possible to realize the performance benefits of the SSDs without purchasing the SSD Cache Feature Key? If the answer is no, can anyone give me a rough idea what the cost is for the SSD cache feature key?

Thanks in advance for your help!
