3.7.5.13 Disk Write Cache Mode
User can set the “Disk Write Cache Mode” to Auto, Enabled, or
Disabled. “Enabled” increases speed, “Disabled” increases reli-
ability.
3.7.5.14 Write Same Support
Drives that support the Write Same feature (SCT) can write to
multiple drive sectors at once, improving initialization time. To
take advantage of this feature, all the drives in the unit must
support Write Same. User can set the “SAS And SATA”, “SAS
Only”, “SATA Only” or “Disabled” for the controller initialization.
