Abstract
A system includes a timer and a control module. The control module: in response to a first request for first data, determines whether the first data is stored in a non-volatile semiconductor memory (NVSM); in response to the first data not being stored in the NVSM, (i) loads the first data from a hard disk drive (HDD) and boots up a computer a first time based on the first data, and (ii) while operating in a learn mode and while loading the first data from the HDD, captures a portion of the first data in the NVSM; in response to the timer indicating an end of a period during which the computer is booted up the first time, ceases the capturing of the first data; and based on the portion of the first data captured in the NVSM during the learn mode, boots up the computer a second time.
