It works bydetecting the most often accessed data and copying it over time to the CacheCade SSD(s) wherethat cached data is accessed directly, instead of accessing the hard disk drives. This can dramaticallyincrease how your applications respond when they are under peak traffic times and how theyperform when response time is critical.CacheCade provides cost-effective performance scaling for database-type applications thatperform lots of random reads and saves the cost of adding extra drives.Optical driveThe R520 supports one slim, 12.7mm, internal optical drive on the system board embedded SATA.The R520 supports DVD-ROM and DVD+/-RW.Tape driveThe R520 does not support internal tape drives.
