[-- Attachment #1 --] I've recently changed hw.ata.wc to 0 (via loader.conf.local) on two systems and on both systems atacontrol cap still says write cache supported & enabled (sysctl confirms the setting being 0). One system is 5.0-RELEASE, the other 4.8-RC. Is atacontrol lying or do the drives insist on write caching? The drives are SAMSUNG SV4002H and SAMSUNG SV8004H/QR100-12. -- Regards, Michael Nottebrock [-- Attachment #2 --] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQA+pygpXhc68WspdLARApqtAJ9Z4zif1CphFg7YzMgWFufEP/RwSQCgnykA AEJreXfq8Uac/Z3MjYyL5fM= =BPbJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
