Guest Ole Weigelt Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Hi Everybody, can I somehow turn off the writing cache for Windows 2008? Thank you Ole
Guest Meinolf Weber Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Re: Writing Cache 2008 Hello Ole, Do you mean the writing cache from the harddisk? Open device manager with devmgmt.msc form the run line, disk drives, properties of your disk and Policies tab.

Guest Ole Weigelt Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Re: Writing Cache 2008 Hi Meinolf, I have looked up this tab, it seems to be Laufwerke|Eigenschaften|Richtlinien in German. But the button for the cache is greyed and the radio button is set to 'on'. BTW: I _am_ Administrator, I have double-checked that. Any other way to switch that thing off?

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Re: Writing Cache 2008 Hello Ole, Check out this one (even it is not stated for 2008): http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/227363-36-cannot-disable-write-cache-hard-drives Did you talk to the harddisk vendor about your problem, maybe it's only to see but not used? What is the reason for disabling it?

Guest Ole Weigelt Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 Re: Writing Cache 2008 I have a Promise SuperTack 8350 with a RAID 5 array. And I have just the problems described in the article. The only difference is that the problems are not 'cosmetic' but annoying. I will try to contact Promise or do you have another suggestion? thanks Ole "Meinolf Weber" <meiweb(nospam)@gmx.de> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:ff16fb66a0e698ca9aa1e9cfdbde@msnews.microsoft.com... > Hello Ole, > > Check out this one (even it is not stated for 2008): > http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/227363-36-cannot-disable-write-cache-hard-drives > > Did you talk to the harddisk vendor about your problem, maybe it's only to > see but not used?
