@support

Frankly, I very excited with the new features reportedly being implemented for version 3.

big ones:
L2 writeback cache
Lower overhead memory usage
......

Can Support please write any other feature/or change for version 3.0?

Thanks

Other major changes includes but not limited to the following.
* Allow to separate read and write cache space
* Allow different cache settings (Strategy/Defer-Write/Prefetch) for volumes within one cache task.
* Performance improvements

just want to ask, how is it going with ver3.0 ? Version 3.0 may be the product we have been waiting for. I have several test machines ready from games to work.

I'm really sorry that it is delayed. We were migrating our projects in new Windows develop kits to comply with latest Windows 10 new policy for kernel drivers. We also spent quite a lot of time for checking and debugging the problems with latest Windows 10 build. We'll try to finish the 3.0 version as soon as possible.

Hi support,

I just wanted to thank you for PrimoCache, it has been an incredible time-saver for me!

Regarding 3.0, I do really hope you are considering an option to verify and rebuild the L2 cache if it gets invalidated (e.g., due to a crash, or if I boot into Safe Mode). This is the #1 feature that I need, as the clearing of the L2 is really unfortunate...

Is there any hope of your adding this capability?

And many thanks again for a wonderful software utility!!

@jzw, well, we do plan to support this option. However, I'm sorry that the 3.0 version won't include it. It may come out in 3.x version after 3.0.
Thanks.
