Hello,
I have been 'googling' and I have found a lot of people warning about the
problems with IDE write cache and journaling filesystems.
These problems exist with ANY filesystem, journaling or not. They also
exist with no filesystem at all.
Should I disable write cache in my systems using reiserfs3+2.4.25?
I'm not sure if it will help. At least with IDE drives, I often cannot
get the write cache disabled -- it's as if it ignores hdparm.
So, like Toby says, get a UPS. Or get a laptop instead, if that makes
any sense.
