LSI is offering CacheCade features that is similar to Adaptec's maxCache technology to to maximize transactional I/O performance through fast SSD as a cache device.

CacheCade Pro 2.0 is available and only SSDs approved by LSI should be used together with CacheCade[1][2]

CacheCade work flow

  • One or more SSDs will be connected to the RAID controller in addition to the normal hard disks, when using CacheCade.
  • Thereby, the conventional hard disks operate completely normally in the RAID array (such as, four hard disks in a RAID 5 array).
  • Data that is often read from the RAID array is automatically stored on the SSDs ("working data set").
  • Data areas that are often read can therefore be read directly from the SSD, which improves read performance.
  • The CacheCade content will remain on the SSDs even during a re-boot.
