Re: New product suggestion: PrimoNetworkCache (cache network files)

2. The next time you try to read that file over the network again, Windows will read from the local cache instead, transparently. And what if someone else changed the file in the original location? That's the complicated part. BUT, for my needs, I only want to cache read-only files over the network...

New product suggestion: PrimoNetworkCache (cache network files)

Hello. It's been some time I've been looking for a way to cache files stored in a remote computer in my laptop, but so far I haven't found any that would work as I want. Windows' Offline Files, freefilessync, onedrive, everything is way too complicated, can't be fully automated, or can only do part ...

Buying one more license

Hello. I currently own a Personal License 2-PC (for 2 computers), and I'm thinking into buying PrimoCache for a third computer. Is it possible to upgrade my license to a Personal License 3-PC (for 3 computers) by paying the price difference ($20,00)?

Re: PrimoCache 4.3.0 - BypassIO

I am on an unsupported platform, Xeon W-2155 (Skylake-W, 7th gen i9 equivalent). I guess I would need modded and signed drivers for that. Meah... It's all marketing I guess. You know, after I learned I can't use defer writes with DirectStorage/BypassIO, I chose defer writes. So much better performa...

Re: PrimoCache 4.3.0 - BypassIO

I have turned off the "Enable Write-Defer" in PrimoCache and now I have two other drivers giving me issues. At least it's not PrimoCache... iaVROC.sys and iaStorE.sys For iaStorE.sys, if you have an Intel CPU from 11th to 13th, there are new drivers that support DirectStorage: https://com...

Re: [2023-04-07] PrimoCache 4.3.0 for Win10/11 released!

DirectStorage support! Thank you so much! Here's what I get from BypassIO fsutil command (I have a RAID-0 setup, so Intel RST drivers are the ones at fault now):

Re: Direct Storage

We will fix it in the next release. Thanks. That's great news! If possible, could you tell if this DirectStorage support will support RAID-0 volumes made with Intel RST too? Recently, Intel released new RST drivers with DirectStorage support, and Microsoft added RAID-0 support in DirectStorage 1.1 ...

Re: More statistics/logs/records/information to help optimize configuration

I actually used a game to monitor the system usage and tweaked PrimoCache a bit to match the game's needs. The game was Forza Horizon 5, which pushes my laptop to the limits of video and system RAM (and temperature too). My laptop has 16GB RAM, Forza manages to use 13GB of those. Before tweaking, I ...

More statistics/logs/records/information to help optimize configuration

If we could have a measure of how much RAM goes unused over time, when and how much of swap file is being used, the peak RAM usage.... Anything to help us determine how much of RAM we can efficiently allocate to PrimoCache so we can get most of our individual systems and needs. Maybe some kind of &q...
