The shadow copy cache file
The default shadow copy settings allocate 10 percent of the source volume being copied (with a minimum
of 350 MB), and store the shadow copies on the same volume as the original volume. (See Figure 8).
The cache file is located in a hidden protected directory titled "System Volume Information" off of the root
of each volume for which shadow copy is enabled.
