Intel® RAID Controller RS2WG160 Hardware User's Guide 5 Determines whether read operations check the cache before reading from disks. ✧ Cache I/O: Checks cache first, only reads disk if data is not in non-volatile RAM and on the drives (COD). - Optional battery backup for cache memory. Configuration stored in the cache. ✧ Direct I /O setting. - I /O: Reads data directly from disk. (not cache) • Redundancy through: - Hot-swap support. - Adaptive Read Ahead: Reads ahead and caches data only if doing sequential reads. -
