Definition of "disk cache" |
a buffer memory area in main memory used to hold blocks of data from disk storage. The cache can hide much of the rotational and seek latencies in disk accesses because a complete data block (disk sector) is read or written together. Disk caches are normally managed by the machine’s operating system, unlike a processor cache, which is managed by hardware. |
