Read Ahead

The controller uses read-ahead for the selected logical drive.

Adaptive Read Ahead

The controller uses read-ahead if the two continuous disk

 

accesses occurred in sequential sectors. If all read requests

 

are random, the controller does not use read-ahead.

 

However, all requests are still evaluated for possible

 

sequential operation.
