Enabling Disk Cache

[Seekermeister]

After running Bootvis, I noticed that it said that the write cache was not enabled. Looking at the Device Manager, the 2 PATA drives have this enabled, but the 3 SATA drives have the items greyed out. Is there a way to control this?

Does this mean that all SATA drives have no cache or is it something that can be enabled?

SATA drives have plenty of cache. Don't worry about it, the drive's own cache is already enabled.

Hmm, if both Windows and Bootvis says that the caches are not enabled, I wonder how it could be if the caches are operating normally?
