Ya basically you can simplify both products into one-GUI while still keeping both pros/cons. Just call the GUI-App "Primo" featuring the funcions "RAM-Disk" and "Cache", simple as that. So you would end up having "RAM-Disk-tasks" and "Cache-Tasks" un...

Ya, wouldn't be so hard since we already have "Deferred Blocks" which resets to 0 when timeout reached and we have "Trimmed Blocks" total. We also would need to reset "Trimmed Blocks" to zero on defer-write timeout to receive "Trimmed Blocks per Defer" So divi...

How should PrimoCache be able to do that.

If you need to write down any change to L1-Read-cache to an image on the disk for secure booting that data, the hole product lost it's sense.

Programming the algorythms for L1-defer-write to function errorless with the algorythms in L2-write and the specific real-drive behind it is a dinosaur-task. I respect them greatly for even trying to build such two-layer-RAM/SSD-write-cache on everyones hardware... i have no clue how i would do that...

Oh Come one, even no reply at all, like "we're focusing on PrimoCache-final actually, Ramdisk continues to receive ongoing improvement". I mean i just bought it and want to hear, that it's not "dead" in means of no more updates in future. See other programs partially indeed have ...

RAM is availabe at high capacities and regarding this dependency is the fastest component inside of a PC. Normaly RAM isn't available for the user to manually store-in data. A RAM-Disk is a piece of software that seperates part of your RAM and creates a drive-letter on your operating system with it...

sry for doublepost

16GB is sufficent for most actual games.. I found out that if you put all games-ressourcen into a RAM-disk...than the gaming process itself does not consume large amount of memory anymore. Example: I usually had around 2GB memory usage for the game "might and magic legacy". After i put the...

Thats it robert. PrimoCache as a (standard) block-layer Cache is meant to increase the speed of block-data, that you either frequently or recently use(d) - by costum algorythm definition BTW. It does not need to load any data at boot, the driver just loads and hook in the PrimoDevice as the defined ...

Technically it would be possible to integrate a layer that reads NTFS file table and so PrimoCache could be aware of single files and their individual block-span, thus this probably would be very cpu-intensive task.. One problem is that MS - as far as I know - didn't describe how NTFS works internal...
