eboostr cache fill
By mAy.jOKer | December 20th, 2008 | 10:22 am
cache drive is 8GB SD card and 512 ＭＢ memory
when allocated size is 4GB，cache fill is 100%
when allocated size is 5GB，cache fill is 33%
when allocated size is 6GB，cache fill is 0% ｏｒ ４４％
when allocated size is 8GB，cache fill is 40%
why？the cache content isn’t same？is the data size variable？
what is the best file system？fat32 or ntfs or exfat？

Cache fill is not just an amount in bytes of data to cache. It is some integral number. It take into account not only size but also number of files, and number on free blocks in cache. In addition, the cache set constantly recalculated. So it can be different on different time.
Speaking about file system. Practically, the are no major difference. NTFS is little faster (very little), but not so convienient if you plan to use the device for other purpose.
Personally I use FAT in external flash device, and NTFS on internal.
