Free space is not being updated in the UI.

When viewing the UI, the drives are listed under each cache task with File System, Capacity, Free Space, and Cluster Size.

Free space is not being updated as the drive is used.

Resizeable will do for now....THANKS! Also if you can, please save the column-widths as a preference so I don't have to change them each time I reboot. :D

Re: [2017-05-27] PrimoCache 3.0.0 Beta is available now!

See attached image for a bug in the GUI display.... the column spacing is off.... most likely because my display settings are for high DPI. Columns should either take into account DPI or at least be realizable.

Re: How is write cache implemented

I would dearly love for write cache to use L2. I have a 512GB Samsung 950 NVMe drive that has awsome write speed. If that could be used as the write cache for my 6TB Seagate spinning disks, that would be the perfect solution for my big file saves and database sorting.

Please make it happen!

Re: Feature Request: Support accelerating writes with L2 Storage

This is the sole feature that's keeping me from buying too. The work I do involves a LOT of writing to very large directory structures. Because of the size of the datasets, SSDs everywhere are cost prohibitive so I have RAIDs of spinners. When I first added PrimoCache with write cache enabled, it wa...

Cannot create large (>24GB) cache on system with 64GB RAM

I have an X99 based system with 64GB of RAM. I am trying to use PrimoCache set up large (>24GB RAM) caches. I get an error: --------------------------- PrimoCache --------------------------- Failed to start cache! This is usually caused by insufficient system resources. You may choose a larger value...

Re: System Resource Monitor doesn't show Disk read details

I completely understand why file activity is unavailable in Resource Monitor for a volume being cached.... But I (reluctantly) converted to PrimoCache from FacnyCache, and I was using the DISK version of FC, not the volume version, and the DISK version still shows file activity in Resource Monitor. ...

Re: Possible bug with large write cache filling up

System memory was about 20GB used, (including FC cache) and10GB free.

I will try lower latency time. I have also moved the destination drive to the Areca controller, and off the Intel mobo.

Possible bug with large write cache filling up

I notices some system sluggishness under the following conditions: Disk 1 is a HW RAID-0 array on an Areca controller, and very fast (4 Samsung 830 256GB SSDs). No FC. Disk2 is a standard WS 2TB WDEARX disk with 5GB of FC with writeback on Intel mobo controller. When doing a large (200+GB) copy from...
