    Crucial Momentum Cache On SSDs

    Just a heads up to people for those that don't know Crucial/Micron have released their new Momentum Cache option for SSDs, its a tad similar to using a Ramdisk in that it stores data in the Ram then moves it to the SSD when required, as with any data in the Ram its volatile so a power cut or blue screen could cause issues.

    A quick benchmark increased my AS SSD score from 930 to over 4000 lol, obviously practical mileage may vary.

    Yes, but Samsung have a similar thing called RAPID mode, as part of their Samsung Magician software.

    The review I read on it suggested it is meh.... More of a look at my awesome benchmark results than my PC feels noticeably faster.
