CIM_CacheMemory
The CIM_CacheMemory class described in CacheMemoryProperties describes the capabilities and management of cache
memory. Cache memory allows a microprocessor to access data and instructions faster than normal system memory
The following table describes the property, description, and data type details for CIM CacheMemory.
Class Name: CIM_CacheMemory
