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

So far so good, it's working well with both the Level 1 and Level 2 cache features. I didn't have to configure anything again, IIRC, which was nice. I've been using it since around the day it was released, fwiw.

Re: PC turns off during sleep when L1 cache enabled.

IIRC there's a Windows setting where, if enabled, the PC restarts if a system failure is encountered. So maybe yours is for some reason not restarting, but is encountering the failure. If you have that setting enabled, you could instead choose to not restart, but to instead write to the system log. ...

Re: Excessive write activity on L2 cache with defer-write disabled

Steam might be reading what was downloaded to ensure it wasn't corrupted.

Re: Overprovisioning NVME drives used as L2 Cache

Does creating a partition on an SSD, and then making it unallocated, effectively do the same thing as overprovisioning? I could have sworn I'd read that years ago.

Re: Reinstalling Windows

Edit: Now that I think about it, I emailed support with my info and notified them that I had a PC that died, and wanted to transfer my license. For a reinstall I think the Romex server remembers your hardware, so you should be good to go for doing a reinstallation. I think you just need to install t...

Re: Windows 11 compatibility

I installed Windows 11, from the ISO Microsoft lets us build, two days ago. AMD Ryzen 9 5900X, ASUS TUF X570-PLUS GAMING (Wi-Fi) mobo, RTX 3080 video card, etc., and no problems so far! Still no issues, thankfully. Microsoft released some patches on patch Tuesday, and my system didn't seem to even ...

Re: Best Setup for new high end PC.

Hmm, your 4TB NVMe drive is based on QLC which can be a great choice for bang for the buck for bulk storage while still having SSD access speeds, but it can be problematic under some scenarios. Your Samsung drives have excellent latencies, and IIRC their controller chips are designed to hold up and ...
