Rapid Cache can implement 3 different cache modes. 

• Incremental mode 

• MAX mode 

• MIN mode 

 
Clicking on the cache mode option radio boxes immediately switches Rapid 
Cache's cache mode. 
 

 

When you request data from your CD, Rapid Cache

®

 will read the data as a 

logical block, and then place part of the data into the cache buffer. The next 
time you need the data from this block, Rapid Cache

®

 will increase the 

cache size for this block and store more of the data block into the cache 
buffer. Using this incremental algorithm, Rapid Cache

®

 makes more 

intelligent use of your cache by retaining the most significant data in the 
cache buffer. 

 
2. Max caching mode:

 

Maximum caching mode reads whole data blocks into the cache buffer 
together with the relevant index and directory files. 
 

Minimum caching mode will read only directories and index files into the 
cache buffer. Minimum caching mode is recommended if you set the cache 
size to less than 514 KB in Rapid Cache

®

. 

 

Allows Windows to handle all caching activity. 

 

Above the Cache mode check boxes is a drop list where the cache file cut-
off size may be set. By choosing an appropriate cache file size in 
combination with the cache size, you can minimize the number of file block 
reads and maximize the use of your cache space.
