The driver "error"/warning/notification just confirms you turned
off that feature.
FWIW, I turn off "write cache" on ALL drives.
I never had it on, so I never knew how much performance I am
giving up...
I like the piece of mind of having things written directly to disk -- right away...

Should write caching be enabled or disabled? I have a portable hard drive
and I was getting some write caching errors so I disabled write caching for
that drive. Since then, I have been getting the following warning in the
system log
The driver disabled the write cache on device \Device\Harddisk0\DR0.
The write caching for my primary hard disk is also disabled. Do I let things
be or do I enable write caching?
