 * WARNING: Possible data loss after enabling the 'Write cache' feature! Only use 'Write cache' with an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).


 * If you enable write caching on a hard disk, the hard disk receives a synchronize cache command to write the cached data to the hard disk when the computer shuts down. In case of power failure, the hard disk does not receive the synchronize cache command. The cached data is not written to hard disk and results in data loss.
