Hi,
I just got a new laptop. It seems to contain a "flash cache" device. That is a SSD drive to cache disk-IO, so my googling tells me. I didn't find if linux really supports this, although I saw something about servers. Anyone has more information ? Will OS12.2/12.3 support this out of the box, or do I need to tweek ?
As you can see, your post has generated much speculation due to the lack of information on what precisely you mean for "flash cache"
It could be "Intel Turbo Memory" however in that case the laptop is not really "new" in the sense that was not manufactured in the last 6 months at least.
Hi, I was indeed surprised with the reactions. I really can't tell more. In the spec's I see : Flash-cache 24 GB mSATA If anyone is interested, it's a HP Elitebook 8470w (LY543EA). Original BIOS dates from half 2012. So the laptop is not that old, technically. I installed OS12.2 on it. At some point the installer says something about "Matrix Storage Manager compatible system. Do you wich to use the raid ?" I tried both options, one seems not to work (this gives some information that lets me believe some raid is used). With the other option I can install OS on the HD, but installing on the SSD drive does not work. I also had to manually install the ATI-video driver before I had a usable display.
