Would it be feasible to run bcache (write-through) with existing ext4
filesystem?

I have 400GB of data I'd rather not move, and SSD I could use for
caching. Ok, SSD is connecte over USB2, but I guess it is still way
faster then seeking harddrive on random access

i doubt that seriously - USB2 has a terrible latency
