5.3 Windows 2008 for CCBoot Server

　Please use Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition 64 bit if you plan to use Windows 2008 as CCBoot server system platform.

　　1. All drives should be formatted as NTFS. When format drives set "Allocation unit size" as "Default" for Windows system drive, and set "Allocation unit size" as "32K" for other drives.

　　2. Allocate hard disks for image, game (raid 0) and write back (2-3 hard disks). If you have an SSD disk, please format it to only one partition for cache.

　　3. Make sure you have enabled the "Enable write caching on the device" for every disk. This will take place of "Clients Write-back Cache" of CCBoot.

　　4. Click Start, right-click Computer and select Properties.

　　5. In the left panel, click Device Manager.

　　6. Expand Disk Drives and right-click on one of the disks.

　　7. Click the Policies tab and check "Enable Write Caching on the device" to enable (it’s a default setting of Windows 2008).

　　8. To further improve the disk performance (needless to say, higher the risk now), check the box "Turn off Windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device".

　　Press "OK" to save. (Figure 1)

　　Implement step 6 - 8 for other disks.
