 I would advise to only specify one cachedir per partition, it does not make
 much sense to define two, in performance terms (e.g).
 Then make it somewhat smaller as the available partition size
 and you will be fine as in :

  cache_dir diskd /cache2/total_cache 13000

 Note that squid by itself will keep some free space
 within the specified cache dir.
 These values are controlled by :

     cache_swap_low
and
    cache_swap_high

 settings; check squid.conf.default (comments), for further explanations.
