As far as I can tell, putting "hw.ata.wc=0" in loader.conf only affects directly connected PATA/SATA disks, not disks connected via a USB-to-*ATA bridge. Perhaps via camcontrol? But "camcontrol modepage da0 -l -v" returns nothing. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-usb To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
