I had a case where neither the BIOS nor the Linux command line tool for the LSI controllers (not a PERC) were able to influence the disk caches (i.e. they were always turned off). But a "disk managemenent suite" (delivered as a bootable ISO) was able to change the setting. And yes, these were SATA drives. -- -- Michael van Elst Internet: mlel...@serpens.de "A potential Snark may lurk in every tree."
