Info on overriding MS’s Readyboost settings, to test this:īut will anyone? The ‘not invented here’ force is strong in humans! 🙂Įveryone knows that with your software installed you basically end up using a HDD benchmark to benchmark RAM. I think it’s worth testing to see if Readyboost does a better job than Intel’s RST due to this filtering/Optimised RAID 0.?

> There should be an increase in SSD life as info is written to flash in 2-4 MB blocks > The low write speeds are only valid until the DRAM cache is full. > This info can be lost in a power outage, so safer. Writes are not as impressive as random writes go into the DRAM cache on the SSDs, but: Now look at the random 4K read performance of Optane versus SATA SSDs and even NVME SSDs: Ie: A sort of ‘optimised for drive characteristics’, RAID 0… The 2 drives then read/write files they are best and fastest at handling, at the same time. Readyboost filters small (~4K), random, oft used files onto media with lower latency than the main drive. There’s an option being overlooked by both Intel and MS: PrimoCache ensures your Big Iron hard drives run at RAMming speed. Go ahead and hook up your favorite 8 TB Seagate Drives to your system… On boot up, the SSD reloads all your commonly used info into the RAM cache,Īnd the RAM cache dynamically updates itself to constantly keep you at top speed. All the stuff you use all the time, is copied to the SSD. Primo Cache pairs ANY SSD device to the RAM cache, for a second level of persistent caching. Set aside 16 GB for a super sized RAM cache – all read / writes work at RAM speeds. Primo Cache works similar to the Intel device. When it is much easier to fix in software, and RAM caching… People keep trying to fix the Hard Drive speed bottle neck in hardware, Romex Primo Caching Software accelerates all read / write operations with RAM and SSD caching, turbo charging any CPU to run just as fast as the RAM can go… My system runs quite a bit faster than the Intel upgrade:ĩ,068 MB / s Read, 14,048 MB / sec Write.ĤK Random Read 1,556 MB / sec, 4K Random Write 1,068 MB / sec. This particular performance provides visibly faster system startups, shut downs, software and game loading and use. For us review geeks and enthusiasts alike, this particular performance is a massive step forward for all areas of flash, consumer, oem and enterprise. Can we say this has never been seen before? That would be correct. The most important takeaway from these benchmarks though is the low 4K read performance of 337MB/s with high 4K QD 16 IOPS of 335,000. The Intel Optane SSD released sometime in the future will have much higher high sequential write performance. Low write performance of 300MB/s is pretty low compared to today’s SSDs, but we can confirm that this speed is where it is at for a reason. First, high read performance of 1.4GB/s is incredible considering we are doing this through a 2x lane environment…that is PCIe 3.0 mind you. There is just so much we can say about the Intel Optane Memory module as an SSD, and so much that we can envision for when it is released as an SSD in the near future.
