Nothing you wrote is true. Cache matters a lot! (Announce)

Nothing you wrote is true. Really nothing!
May I remind you what Jack wrote on Udo's forum?

Finally, I leave it for all of you to try almost ANYTHING on your systems using a disk cache, or not. SATA disks rotate at 7200/10000 RPM and still have "rotational latencies", and their "high" transfer rate of 1.5 to 6 Gigabits/sec ARE NOT matched by a "net" bit-stream from the disk of about 240 Megabits/sec! Do your OWN tests, then decide for yourselves if Japheth's comments about not needing a cache are correct, or NOT!

As I've tested, the speed difference in using UDMA+cache and only UDMA is really enormous.
