Abstract
Implementations described and claimed herein provide a method and system for comparing a storage location related to a new write command on a storage device with storage locations of a predetermined number of write commands stored in a first table to determine frequency of write commands to the storage location. If the frequency is determined to be higher than a first threshold, the data related to the write command is stored in a write cache.
