Discussion GUIDE Install ExpressCache for SSD Caching. Edit: I followed the 'ExpressCache Only Guide' with SATA set to RAID (and not AHCI), before testing the SSD Cache with 'ECCmd -info' you need to reboot your system otherwise you will not see any info and the unit appear unmonted.

I upgraded my windows 8.1 pro to windows 10, previously ExpressCache was working fine on my ASUS n551jk, but since my update to windows 10 it is not working correctly, and I can't use my SSD drive as cache drive anymore. Every time I tried to installExpressCache I received a notification from windows 10 that 'EpressCache doesn't work on this version of windows', however newer versions of ExpressCache like 1.3.1 could be installed correctly on windows 10, but the ASUS version which is 1.0.100 is not workingcorrectly.
Please help me with this issue. Why ASUS version of ExpressCache is not supporting? Hi,Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.I will be glad to help you with the issue you have with the computer. I understand the frustration when things don't work the way it should.The issue could be because of compatibility.
I suggest you to run the program in Windows 8 compatibility mode and check. Please follow the below link to know how to run a program in compatibility mode:Note: The link is for Windows 7 but also works for Windows 10.Hope this information is helpful. Please post in case you have any further issues. I will be glad to help you.Thank you. Hey Ruth,Thanks for replying, I tried all possible ways including running in different compatibility modes before posting my issue here to get it work, but It doesn't work!My system's booting speed decreased dramatically compare to previous booting speed at the time of using windows 8.1 pro, So it is very important to solve this issue and make ExpressCache running correctly!
Without it cache drive is useless!I also tried to report the problem to ASUS support, but I don't know why I couldn't post my technical issue on their support site every time a strange message appeared on my screen preventing me from posting my issue! Can anybody else report this issueto ASUS support?
HI.Remove all have the ExpressCache on your PC, including the record.and install this here.has ok no virus for disengage anti-virus pass it, will that update the file, since it was not me who went up the file, only found in a forum.I installed it on my asus s46cb and worked perfectly with Windows 10, the process to install is below. Always open the cmd as administrator.1. Install ExpressCache and restart the system2. Open the CMD as3.
Enter diskpart to open the Disk Manager and Partition6. Run the list disk command to see the disks available7.
Type select disk X (replace X with 24GB of disk number shown in the previous listing)8. Run the clean command to clean up the volume9.
Exit diskpart by typing exit (not exit the prompt)10. Navigate to the directory C: Program Files Diskeeper Corporation ExpressCache directly by the prompt (use the CD command for this)11.
Hello!My E330 has a 16GB Cache-SSD. I noticed that this disk contains two partitions (each ca.8GB) and ExpressCache uses only one of them. I assume the other partition is for the 'Intel Rapid Start Technology', which I consider useless (for me) and disabled in the BIOS.Now my question is, how can I configure ExpressCache so that it uses the whole 16GB SSD. Of course I know how to repartition the drive. What I don't know is if I have to 'shutdown' the ExpressCache software and reconfigure it, or if I have to completely uninstall/reinstall it.Thanks for reading. It shouldn't be too hard to expand the cache partiton.
Here's how I'd do it: (Assume all disclaimers and, of course, do lots of backups. AND, I did this on a w530, not an E330.)Check out this thread:In order to remove your hibernation partion, you need to use Diskpart to change that partion ID to 07 ('set id=07 override') and then you can remove it using windows 'Disk Managment'. Hi,thank you for your answer! It took me some time but finally I managed to reconfigure my system.First some words about Rapid Start: even if I wanted to use it, I couldn't. I ordered a memory upgrade, so the partition (7.2GB) will then be too small for Rapid Start. Using only the supplied 4GB RAM there are 3GB wasted on the SSD which could support the Cache, instead.)I thought there would be an easy way to change the ExpressCache configuration, but your post made me realize that it's not as simple as expected. Since I wanted to keep the GUID Partition Table (GPT) instead of MBR on the disk I couldn't follow your instruction exactly, but it was a great hint.
Thanks again!In case anybody here is interested, here's a short guide how I reconfigured my system.Use it at your own risk. And be really sure you select the correct disk and partitions.

This will help others with the same question in the future. THANK YOU kayphoonstarIT took me 20 seconds from the cmd line after 10 or failed installs. I couldnt find that information anywhere.As per that user post, un-install cache program first- install when your done after re-boot.And for me i have a 24 so i did NOT set a drive size as default is to use the entire drive.' The key here is to partition the mSATA with diskpart in an admin command prompt: diskpart select disk 0 (0 being my mSata) clean convert MBR create partition primary size=8192 (left mine at 'create partition primary' and it used entire drive) set id=73 override exitYou can use diskmgmt.msc to format the rest of the space as NTFS if you want a nice little SSD file store.
