    Abstract: Data-integrity protection of a cached storage device is provided in an alternate operating system (OS) environment by replacing an actual partition table for a disk with a dummy partition table and scrambling a predetermined amount of data on the cached storage device. The dummy partition table is designed to render data on the disk inaccessible when the dummy partition table is used by an OS to access the data. During operation, the data on the disk can be accessed using information based on the actual partition table. In response to receiving a request to disable caching, the dummy partition table on the disk is replaced with the actual partition table and any scrambled data is unscrambled, thus rendering the data on the formally cached disk accessible in an alternate OS environment where appropriate caching software is not present.

    Abstract: According to one embodiment, filtering cached input/output (I/O) data includes receiving a current I/O transfer that is part of an ongoing data stream, and evaluating whether to filter ongoing data streams once the data stream reaches are particular size threshold. The transfer rate for the ongoing data stream may be calculated and a determination is made as to whether the transfer rate is greater than a throughput associated with a target storage device. The current I/O transfer is cached if the transfer rate is greater than the throughput associated with a target storage device, or is not cached if the transfer rate is not greater than the throughput associated with a target storage device. The current I/O transfer may be also cached if the transfer rate is less than or equal to the throughput associated with the target storage device and the I/O transfer is a write I/O transfer.
