A question of cache...

Post by Hangfire » Thu Mar 10, 2011 12:12 pm

I was disappointed to see (on the Page 1 chart) that the ST2000DL003 has only 64 bytes of RAM Cache. Seems a giant step backwards. :D

The SATA III interface brings with it more than just unusable speed, it is hooked into faster AHCI and 4K access modes. And that speed may well be usable by the 64 Megabyte cache, if only briefly.
