Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

It occurs to me, Brighttail, that even different symptoms might be resolved by a patch that address only one of them. So getting 2.7.3 installed is my priority for the day. And thanks for your observation on this. I'm hoping it addresses all of our issues. :) Big thanks to SUPPORT for finding a fix...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

Deleted old version, reinstalled new version and recreated primary and L2 cache.

I'm happy to say no errors or that scanning/repairing issue.

Sweet! Thanks!

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

As far as I can tell, tech support here hasn't said anything about overclocking or such, they have simply acknowledged that there is/was an issue with the dedicated/private volume that Primocache sets up. Windows cannot correctly recognize it. Unfortunately for me, at least, the new version 2.7.2 ha...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

I'm really sorry for the late reply as we're busy in testing and fixing for v3.0 and Win10 1703build! Regarding the message "Scanning and repairing the volume..." during the boot-up in Win 10 1703build, we already have a fix for this problem. The cause is that PrimoCache L2Storage volume ...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

At this point i think I'm done with attempting an L2 cache for the time being. For me it isn't worth the hassle. I did notice in one of my many resinstallations that there was an issue with the GPU drivers. I don't remember the exact error but i was BSODing at startup and managed to get into safe mo...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

The problem is, I don't use any M.2 for the L2 Cache drive. I use a Samsung 850 Pro. The drivers for it are provided by Windows and always has been. It is fully up to date on its firmware. I'll provide my system specs below but I would like to point out that when it comes to the L2 cache, nothing ha...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

I was honestly thinking this because the Optane is available now, tho only for 200 boards using Kaby Lake. That doesn'tl mean that they wouldn't have had to make changes to their OS to accomodate them more. Pretty much what the optane m.2 does is pretty much what an L2 cache does. **UPDATE** I reins...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

Welp I have been using the NVMe Driver from Samsung version 2.1. I found there is a 2.2.0.1703 with a date of march 2017. Going to try these as they are WHQL certified and see if they work. *EDIT* Okay so I can confirm the following: - the Scanning and Repairing is coming from the drive partition th...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

Interesting as I couldn't even get Samsung 4.9.7 working on the new version of Windows. I kept getting a "digital device signature" error which would completely mess up my computer. I could install and use Samsung Magician 5.0, but that doesn't recognize my OEM Samsung SM961s. It is VERY o...

Re: Windows corrupts after latest patch corrupt primocache

So I have two Samsung SM961's M.2 drives and a Samsung 850pro. I have put a 20gb partition on the Samsung 850pro that I use for the L2 cache and that is not a OS boot drive. I did attempt to recreate that L2 partition and was still getting the Scanning/repairing messages. Furthermore I was getting t...
