Cache Extended Memory

If enabled, this feature will allow the data stored in the extended memory

area to be cached (written) into a buffer, a storage area in the Static DRM

(SDROM) or written into L1, L2, L3 cache inside the CPU to speed up CPU

operations. Select "Uncached" to disable this function. Select "Write

Through" to allow data to be cached into the buffer and written into the

system memory at the same time. Select "Write Protect" to prevent data

from being written into the extended memory area above 1 MB. Select "Write

Back" to allow the CPU to write data back directly from the buffer without

writing data to the System Memory for fast CPU data processing and

operation. The options are Uncached, Write Through, Write Protect, and

Write Back.
