| CD strange behavior Does Windows cache the contents of the CD drive? Here is the scenario that prompts this question: I was trying to compare two CDs to verify that they were identical using MD5 sums. I am using Microsofts' fciv tool from the command line and running it against the CD Drive. When I run this on the first CD it takes about 15 seconds to calculate the MD5 sum of the files. I change CD and execute fciv using the same command line and the results are returned almost immediately.      |
