I have a question regarding this product: What happens if a crash occurs on the PC before the cache has been saved to disk? I assume that it's gone. IMHO, this is a major drawback of software caching products. I'd feel a bit better about hardware (controller) caching, since the cache can be retained by an on-board battery, and if the controller is smart enough, it will write the cache to disk before rebooting the system.
