Another option for folks looking for ram caching is the new Samsung Rapid capability available with all 840 evo drives, enabled via the Samsung Magician utility. :)

^^ yes, very nice! I've never used supercache but I have played with (what I think is) a similar program - called fancycache. :)
RAM caching can be very usefull, particularly if you have a lot of...
^^ Controller cache for sure shows up in all the benchmarks - Anvil Storage Utilities using test size of 12GB or more reduces the affect.
You should test different stripe sizes to find what is best...
^^ Others have reported that W8.1 intel raid drivers are not as fast as 7's. :yepp:
