Hi, dd is using the writeback cache, you have wcd=false this means: allow an application to control the write mode. In this case dd will write without a sync flag and thus it can go to DRAM instead of the ZIL. This is actually a good thing if you have applications that understand the write semantics which are required to protect its own data integrity.
You can simply set wcd=true and it will force the sync mode to always occur.
