smooth sailing with 52GB

MB:ASUS P5N32-E SLI Plus
CPU:Q6600 @ 2.4Ghz
SND:Soundmax Integrated Digital HD Audio
VID:Nvidia Geforce XFX 280 GTX XXX
WIN:Vista Home Premium x64 SP1
RAM:8GB DDR2 800mhz SLI Ready (4X2GB)
52GB Eboostr 3.0.0.479: Dane Elec 4GB, Ultra Speed 8GB, Centrios 8GB-200X, Retail Plus 32GB

Smooth sailing with this settup. I did have a problem with the new nvidia drivers but all seems good now.

was wondering if the cache is setup as a stripe-raid to increase access times. yes as already posted

also would like to know if Eboostr could use the speed of the device to prioritize allocation. ie my Dane Elec 4GB

fills to 100% before my 8GB drives fill to 40% but my 4GB drive is the slowest drive.

Thx ahead of time.

    Maybe it is using alpha-numeric ordering, what drive letters were your drives lettered as?

    Cache files (on physical device) form some type of raid1. So both devices contains almost identical list of files. Each read file is dividing by parts proportional to devices speed and forward to multiple devices.

    not using alpha-numeric ordering, the 4gb is the third usb drive. noticed the format sizes… 40% of the 8GB drives is approximately the same size as the 4GB drive formated size.
