"You can only cache to a ddr (digital disk recorder)."

Yup, it's a lie.

The best part of caching is that you can use a video tape machine and stick a 30 minute reel in to take care of all your caching needs for an entire edit session. That way you have all the layers of a complicated compositing job (using LAYER BACKUP caching) and all the original source footage before a speed change was done to it (using SLO-MO caching) all on one tape. So, the next time you go back to that job (don't say "my clients never re-edit their jobs" because I know you are lying!), and re-open that session, all your cache marks are there. And, you simply pop that tape back in the machine and PRESTO all the cached material is there, too.

It can be a beautiful world sometimes.

Choose a Lie Cache to DDR Only Automatic Layer Restore

"There is a way to automatically go back to a previously cached layer through LAYER BACKUP."

Yup, another lie.

In order to go back and restore a layer while using LAYER BACKUP caching, you must do so by hand. You do have all the corresponding numbers right in front of you in the EDL under the cache trace column. But, since the LAYER BACKUP is a Cache feature, none of the numbers are available for you to bring up through match or EDL transfer.

"You mean I have to type a number by hand ? !"
