SilverStone HDDBOOST - Manual (Page 6)

Q: How does HDDBOOST work?
A: HDDBOOST will carry out the action of mirror backup right after the initial installation.
This action will copy the front-end data of the original system hard drive to the SSD
sequentially (assuming that the capacity of SSD is smaller than HDD.).
After the initial mirroring of data is completed, SSD and HDD will have the same front-
end data. HDDBOOST’s controller chip will then set data read priority to SSD to take
advantage of SSD’s much faster read speed.
HDDBOOST’s priority will be determined by the following rules:
1.When data is present on both drives, read from SSD.
2.When data is not present on both drives, read from HDD.
3.All data will be written to the HDD and rewritten to the SSD as necessary.
When the computer in operation, HDDBOOST will initiate mirror backup automatically
to ensure front-end data between the two drives are the same.
