Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for intelligent data caching behavior. In an embodiment, a method may comprise receiving an indication a user has selected specific data for caching, and storing the specific data to a cache memory. In another embodiment, a system may comprise a host device including a driver configured to monitor the system for an indication a user has selected specific data for caching, and store the specific data to a cache memory. In yet another embodiment, an apparatus may a data storage device including a nonvolatile data storage medium, a cache memory, and a processor. The Processor may be configured to receive an indication a user has selected specific data for caching, and copy the specific data form the nonvolatile data storage medium to the cache memory.
