What are the limitations of SSD caching? I need to know more about the compatible parts. Will an older Intel core 2 duo work with it? I thought i heard somewhere that only newer processors support SSD caching, but I'm not sure if i should believe it or not. If you guys could shed some light on the topic that would be great.
No. It will not work with a Core 2 Duo. SSD caching was introduced with the Z68 chipset (Sandy Bridge) and works with Z68, Z78, Z87.
The Core 2 Duo runs on the GXX, PXX, QXX, and X38 & X48 chipsets. My work computer uses a Core 2 Duo E7500 on the G41 Chipset.
