A method for improving the performance of a computerized data storage and access system includes the steps (a) providing a virtual representation of an existing data storage controller accessible to a computing system, (b) providing a configuration interface executable by an operator of the computing system, (c) using the configuration interface, reserving an amount available memory for dedicated use as a data cache and or additional storage space for storing data written to one or more disk drives representing data storage disks of the data storage and access system, (d) intercepting read and write requests to the data storage controller from the central processing unit of the computing system via the virtual representation of the controller, and (e) writing data into the reserved memory or serving data from the reserved memory in lieu of accessing a data storage disk represented by the one or more disk drives.
