Angela, Do you know the part # you ordered for the G4? The non-performance model comes with 64MB cache..Check the ACU and it will tell you if you have write cache capability. I think it's under controller settings. I buy the "Performance Model" and it comes with the extra 128MB of cache so I really can't tell by looking at my mine if your have the same capability. adam "Angela Smith" <angela_smith9@ho tmail.com> To Sent by: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx thin-bounce@freel cc ists.org Subject [THIN] Re: TSCALE or Appsense 01/09/2007 06:44 AM Please respond to thin@xxxxxxxxxxxx g Hi The servers (DL380G4's) dont have write cache on the onboard controllers...
