The device installs correctly and says it has set up a cache after bootup. However there is no performance change at all that I can notice or that either Norton SI or Coretest will notice. However if I set up Microsoft SMARTDRIVE instead then both programs notice a significant boost in performance. Does ZCACHE not work or I am I doing something wrong, or am I not testing it correctly?
