I have had a look around and can't find a satisfactory answer to this yet. I have a dual boot machine - Arch and Windows 7 (necessary for a few things unfortunately). I was considering moving my setup to an SSD but obviously it would be very expensive, so I want to do SSD caching.
What's the best way to do this to enable caching for both Arch and Windows? Should I buy one SSD (say 128Gb), partition it and tell Intel Smart Response about one partition and flashcache (yet to be decided) about the other partition? This seems a shame though as only 64Gb of cache can be used on any one instance. Perhaps there is a more sensible way I am not aware of.
Thanks!

You could have a look at http://bcache.evilpiepirate.org/, but I think you'll be helped better by simply creating a normal 64 Gb partition and actually move your installation. If you have a home-directory that is bigger then that 64 Gb you can simply mount your hdd as /home

GNU/Linux uses BCache for this sort of thing:
