If I install any other linux distribution, like CentOS, write speek is

I was hoping if it were at all possible for you to assist me in with a
later RAID Controller Driver for the SAS 6/iR Adapter
Try:
hw.mpt.enable_sata_wc=1
in /boot/loader.conf and reboot.
Assuming you are using SATA drives, the write cache is disabled by
default. This reenables it. The mpt manpage holds more information.
Just keep in mind that turning the disk's write cache on puts your
data at risk. :-(
The correct solution is NCQ.
Just wondering, if you have a battery on your RAID array, is this a
problem? Wouldn't the cache get written anyway in case of a crash?

Hi,
hw.mpt.enable_sata_wc tunable enables the on disk write cache not the
controller write cache.
