Read Policy
Read cache policy:
•

enabled, the storage controller can pre-read sequential data or
anticipate data to be requested and store the data in the cache
•

Compared with the setting of the

,
Write Through
, and
Direct values, setting the Read Ahead , Write Back , and Cached values can
improve performance, but at the cost of losing data consistency.

completion signal to the host when the drive subsystem has received all
data in a transaction.
•

supercapacitor of the storage controller is absent or faulty. If the server
is powered off, the controller cache loses its data because of lack of
power..

signal to the host when the controller cache receives all data in a
transaction. If the supercapacitor is faulty, the
Write through policy is
used.
