Hello,

I'm trying to work out the best configuration for my setup.
My confusion is how much L1 cache to set based on my scenario.

I bought the software to be used with 2 SSDs for 2 HDDs

Specs as follows:
RAM 32GB

• 512GB NVME - OS
  2TB NVME - Modern taxing AAA Games
  8TB HDD - Older Slower Games / general data
  8TB HDD - Streaming / general data
  1TB SSD - Cache for 1x 8TB HDD
  1TB SSD - Cache for 1x 8TB HDD

At the moment I have 2 cache configurations setup with 10GB L1 allocated to each, so 20GB in total.
Does this mean that if I were to run a game from the NVME 2TB drive it would only have access to 12GB which is also shared with all the other running processes?

Would someone have a suggestion as to how I should configure it all based on my use scenario?

Many Thanks!

RAM used as L1 cache is exclusive to PrimoCache, so Windows and other applications/games cannot use this part of RAM.

In your case, you should reserve more RAM for games. You can reduce L1 cache to 5GB or less for each task.

Thank you, will do!
