Disk drive manufacturers are putting increasingly larger built-in caches into disk drives. Today, 2 MB buffers are common on low-end retail IDE/ATA drives, and some SCSI drives ar...
With an ever increasing amount of data to store, hierarchical storage management (HSM) systems must still use tape for tertiary storage. A disk cache is used to reduce the access ...
This paper focuses on evaluation of the effectiveness of optimization at various layers of the IO path, such as the file system, the device driver scheduler, and the disk drive i...
Current disk arrays, the basic building blocks of highperformance storage systems, are built around two memory technologies: magnetic disk drives, and non-volatile DRAM caches. Di...
