Memcache to use disk storage?

Can Memcache be configured to use disk storage instead of RAM ?

I am running Memcache Server on High IO Amazon EC2 instance. The instance has 2TB of SSD storage available. Can I configure Memcache to use the SSD storage to store the cache contents ?

Thanks

instead of memcache you could use redis witch write on disk and will use your ssd.

As far as I know this does not work. But there are alternatives as pointed out here: memcached-like key/value cache that uses both RAM and disk
