Hope it was a useful reminder, not the kind you get from your mother to clean up your room 🙂

I was primarily interested in understanding more about the process so I can optimise my system. I’ve just switched from Mac to PC for a new job and I want to spec my machine out as well as possible (within budget of course).

Currently I’m on a Dell T3500 with a Nvdia Quadro 4000 and 8GB of RAM. I have a RAID striped 2TB internal media drive (currently unsure of the specs on that but trying to find out more). I’m in the process of adding another 12GB of RAM but I’m just wondering how much performance gain I’ll get from looking at another internal drive – probably an SSD – as the disk cache drive.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Jesse

Hi Walter – did you ever get around to publishing that write up you mentioned on disk cache issues? I’d love to have a read.

Cheers
