Enabling SSD Caching on a Virtual Drive

You can enable SSD caching on a virtual drive. When you enable SSD caching on a virtual drive, that virtual drive becomes associated with an existing or with a future CacheCade – SSD Caching virtual drive. This option is only available when the virtual drive’s caching is currently disabled.

    The virtual drives and physical drives associated with the selected drive group appear.
  2. Click the virtual drive on which you want to enable SSD caching.
  3. Select Actions > Enable SSD Caching.
    The following popup appears.
  4. Click Yes.
