Chapter XVIII Cache Setting
18.1
Cache setting notes
1.
During read operation, if the data requested by the host is in the cache, storage will not
access hard disk, but send cache data to the host.
2.
During write operation, data will be written to cache, and data will then be written to hard
disk when cache data reaches a certain percentage.
3.
When a controller fails, cache data in this controller will lose.
4.
In order to protect data in cache, user could diminish the percentage triggering writing
cache to hard disk, but during frequent read-write, this will reduce performance.
5.
When cache mirroring function is enabled, if a controller fails, another controller will
take over, while this controller will use mirrored cache to continue read-write operation.
