Hello!
Just quickly.. Will it be worth getting a 64GB or a 120GB SSD Cache for my system?
So i was thinking about SRT because cloning or reinstalling IS NOT an option for me. And SSD's are dirt cheap now. Can get a SanDisk 64GB for £40 so that's cool.
I can't really see any benchmarks online other than this YT video which is pretty hardcore with the music http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwb3ibxw4xU
It looks pretty convincing as well.
Ignoring the above video will i see a huge difference + how long will it take for the caching to take effect because i could imagine it'll take a few days depending on usage for it to notice usage patterns? + would 64GB be enough for me? If i remember correctly 64gb was a good cache size comparing to anything higher.
+ Can i just wack a SSD Cache in without reinstalling? It wasn't very clear on Intels website.
So to setup i turn on raid on SATA, turn on SRT, boot into windows and configure within intels SRT software? I have 4 hard drives so wont turning on RAID fiddle with everything?
Oh and i have an i7 3770K and a Z77 Board (MSI Z77A-GD55)
Edit - Okay so according to Intels video about SRT.. You have to have a single hard drive or multiple Hard Drives in a Raid Volume.. Guess i can't do it then?!
