Depends on the endurance rating of your drive, how long you expect/want it to last. Ideally I would want it to not replace more than 20% of the cache per day. If it's replacing >50% of the cache every day, then it's not nearly large enough (unless you have a lot of writes to the drive as well). You'...

If it were my setup, and I knew just how large the games (and used space on your HDD volume were), I'd allocate 50GB to the L2, and leave the remaining 5GB unallocated (in SSD terms - unprovisioned). Most SSDs see that unprovisioned space and utilize it well to extend the lifespan of the SSD. It doe...

When you installed, were you logged in with Administrator rights? Is Windows 10 fully activated (no Activate now message)? Have you tried deactivating anti-virus permanently until install+reboot is finished, then reactivating it?

@minhgi, I'm sorry for the late reply. Currently we're working on following features/improvements. 1. Improve the performance with better process design. 2. Tuning cache algorithm to get better cache hit rate. 3. New writing modes/processes for the defer-write feature. 4. Improve the prefetch featu...

The L1 is best used just for your C: SSD. It will speed up most Windows stuff if it's large enough, and IF you move your currently played game(s) to C: it can help with them too. Just depends on how large they are. If I were doing it, I'd do the L1 on C: at 4GB, and the L2 on your 1TB. The L2 SSD yo...

For large data files (like movies) I keep my storage drive cache at 64kb. But for everyday use, 16kb is just fine. If the overhead is too much, you can increase it. Remember that Primo will clear the L2 completely if you change the block size. It also depends on the cluster size of the formatted dri...

Try re-creating the cache task you have now, and when you create it again tell it Read & Write cache strategy (not just Read), just don't enable Deferred Writes. This will make writes to the cached drive go through the L2 cache, and they will end up on the SSD AND the cached drive. That way when...

Crystal Disk Mark is (like most of the others) a synthetic benchmark test. As long as your L1 cache is as large as the test file(s), you're going to see a good score. But in real world daily use, you won't benefit much from a 2GB L2 on W10 (especially if you're covering both your boot and data drive...

Due to the access time on SSDs being low, and only able to give ~2GB to a L1, I would recommend you just stick with the 64GB L2 in this case. The only way you'd see better speed increases were if you set a 4-6GB cache against *only* the C: drive (Cache Task 1, L1), and then the 64GB SSD against the ...
