Re: RAM as L2 Cache For M.2 SSD
I just noticed that this thread has no replies. Sorry I forgot to reply. RAM cache still can help as RAM is much faster than the nvme SSD and it has no write wear. However you may not see noticeable difference if your drives are not heavily used in your scenario. If your drives have lots of access, ...

Re: Primocache with Drivepool and SSD Optimizer
I set a Read/Write L1 and L2 for both the external SSDs and HDDs and now everythings speedy. I'm glad to hear PrimoCache helps. :) I assume a file first being downloaded to the SSDs will store in the cache and then when its moved later to the HDDs utilize that cache for the transfer? Yes, as long a...

Re: Transfer data intermittent (by equal blocks of data)
Because defer-write is enabled, write-data will be first stored in the cache (here the L1 cache, according to your configuration) and then flushed to the target drive (D:) at a certain interval (here 10s), that's why you saw intermittent writes on the D: drive. PS. Your L2 cache is too small (only 6...

Re: Cache "successfuly" fails to be applied when more than 65 GiByte is configured
PrimoCache will log an event when it is unable to obtain the required amount of RAM. Could you follow the guidance in the link below to check if there are any events with source "FancyCcV"? If there are, please export these events and send them to support@romexsoftware.com. Also please fol...

Re: Primocache with Drivepool and SSD Optimizer
Is there any benefit to using a L2 external NVME for both read and writing? I don't see how writing would benefit speed as the files already go from one of my SSDs to a HDD and the HDDs don't really swap files between themselves. The HDD drive speed being the rate limited step. Do you mean using an...

Re: Transfer data intermittent (by equal blocks of data)
Do you use the "Average" write-mode? Can you upload a screenshot of the PrimoCache main dialog as described in the link below?

Re: Cache "successfuly" fails to be applied when more than 65 GiByte is configured
It seems that PrimoCache failed to allocate memory as L1 cache. Because L2 cache can start, PrimoCache will still create the cache task. That's why you see L1 is 0 but cache task is created successfully. Is your system a NUMA architecture? If yes, you need PrimoCache Pro and enable NUMA-aware. See h...

Re: Quick question regarding windows write cache vs primocache L1 defer write
It is recommended to use the default Windows policy in "Enable write caching on the device".BetoMattos wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 2:47 pm It would be interesting to disable the "Enable write caching on the device" function, so for those who use Primocache?
