Default Playback Engine -- Where's my Disk Playback option?

When I go into set-up to start my session I don't see the option to disk cache. I have an iMac i7 3.4ghz quad core running 10.6.8 with 16 gig of RAM. Again, when I open the Playback Engine I don't have the ability to cache the playback like it says you can in the video tutorials about the cool PT10 features. It simply shows up like it did in PT 9. Any ideas?

Do you have PTHD10? Disk Cache is an HD feature.

If you purchase the complete production toolkit you'll have practically all the features of HD.
I did years ago and am so glad I did.
You can find it online, on ebay or even in the buy and sell section of the duc.
My friend purchased one from a guy who upgraded to hd. He got it for like a grand.
Good luck.

CPTK is worth the money! Especially if your in post. Believe me, I'd be pulling my hair out without it.
