FWIW, you can open the image file itself in various programs that will interpret a disk image file, such as AccessData FTK Imager.

Re: What the people are asking for + a few others.
In theory if an SSD/L2 is being used as the write cache, the non-volatile nature would much improve the situation. In the event of powerfailure/crash, after reboot, the system could notice writes in L2 that had not been flushed to disk yet. Dangerous since the boot process before FC is loaded could...

Re: Instead of caching software, why not make a hybrid setup
FC still make sense with SSD. For example, small and random writes are MUCH faster with FC in front of the SSD. And a LARGE FC smokes even SSD, when the entire file will fit in cache. Realize too, that even SSD is not fast enough for some. I'm running a 1GB RAID0 made of up 4x256GB SAMSUNG 830 SSDs ...

Re: What the people are asking for + a few others.
Pooling memory with a min/max would be good, so all drives can share from the same pool. As it is now, I give about 16GB of a 24GB system to FC, but that is 8GB to one drive, 7GB to another, and 1GB to the system drive. When I launch something big like a VM, I have to reconfigure FC to use less. A b...

Re: How big can L2 cache be?
I have 4 Corsair Force Series 3 180GB SSDs in a RAID-0 array with 4GB of hardware cache on an Areca controller. I add and then manipulate large datasets in MySQL. The MySQL databases are on the RAID array, but I have a 4TB drive with a lot of other data that is too big for the RAID array. Most of th...

How big can L2 cache be?
How big can L2 cache be?
I am looking at a RAID0 array of SSDs (4x32GB) so it will be 128GB. I'd like to use at least 64GB of that for L2 cache in FC. Possible?

Re: deferred write
I'll second the request for an option to flush writes when entering S3 suspend. Sometimes my system hangs when trying to resume from S3 suspend. Data safety should be the highest importance.

Re: FC Beta 0.7.0 hangs and reboots system
Yes, I have a large (3GB) Primo Ramdisk for temp files.
This is on Win7x64, so I am using regular flat memory model.

Re: FC Beta 0.7.0 hangs and reboots system
As I posted before, I went back to 0.6.2 and it works, but now it has expired. I tried upgrading to 0.7.0, but it crashes under Win7: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: FancyCcD.exe Application Version: 0.7.0.0 Application Timestamp: 4e5b3ed6 Fault Module Name: KERNELB...

FC and Truecrypt
FWIW, I have one partition of a disk encrypted with Truecrypt (partition, not a container).
Using FC 0.6.2 for volumes, and selecting the encrypted partition (it has no drive letter, and is identified by the GUID in FC) reads and writes to the encrypted partition were cached without a problem.
