I don't think this was available in previous versions. By design, PrimoCache only prefetches Read-Data.

Yea, just run the installer and install it over the old version. All will be done automatically (needs to restart the computer after installation).

Good morning,
in older versions, the read and write data wasn´t seperate. If written data are not marked as standby-blocks to free the cache, this data can be prefetch at boot or login. I mean the content itself, whether the data was written or read did not matter.

@0liVer. I understand. Yes, you're right. If you separate the L1 cache, PrimoCache only prefetches data in the read space. You may overcome this problem by using shared L1 cache space ( uncheck the "Individual R/W..." option).

@support. Thank you for the idea!
If I set the cache to write exclusively, the data in the cache will not be preloaded at boot or login. in older versions that went. this is what i mean.

Hello! I got a bug with PrimoCache.
If more specifically interaction of PrimoCache and PerfectDisk boot-time defrag.
When PerfectDisk does reboot in boot-time PrimoCache does not flush cache to disk causing boot loop(defrag runs but result is not saved so defrag runs again and again).
