为什么在禁用写回缓存的情况下 Intel RST RAID 1 阵列写入速度更快?

为什么在禁用写回缓存的情况下 Intel RST RAID 1 阵列写入速度更快?

我有两个硬盘(5900 RPM),RAID 1(镜像)。我知道,我知道,它的速度太慢了。我目前正在用更快的驱动器替换它们,因此我在测试时提出了这个问题。

出于某种原因,在 Intel RST 选项中禁用写回缓存会给我带来很多快点写入速度,反之亦然。据我所知,我预计写入速度减少禁用写回缓存。这样对吗?这只是监控程序的一个错误吗?

答案1

在写回缓存中,当控制器缓存接收到事务中的所有数据时,控制器会向主机发送数据传输完成信号。

在写通缓存中,当磁盘子系统接收到事务中的所有数据时,控制器会向主机发送数据传输完成信号。

写回缓存具有以下缺点:

  • 如果需要替换块,则仅当设置了更新位时才写入主存储器
  • I/O必须通过缓存访问主存
