Abstract:
A SSD caching system for hybrid storages is disclosed. The caching system for hybrid storages includes: a Solid State Drive (SSD) for storing cached data, separated into a Repeated Pattern Cache (RPC) area and a Dynamical Replaceable Cache (DRC) area; and a caching managing module, including: an Input/output (I/O) profiling unit, for detecting I/O requests for accesses of blocks in a Hard Disk Drive (HDD) during a number of continuously detecting time intervals, and storing first data corresponding to first blocks being repeatedly accessed at least twice in individual continuously detecting time intervals to the RPC area sequentially; and a hot data searching unit, for detecting I/O requests for accesses of a HDD during a independently detecting time interval, and storing second data corresponding to second blocks being accessed at least twice in the independently detecting time interval to the DRC area sequentially.
