neelsaraiya Posted September 24, 2014 Share #1 Posted September 24, 2014 I have a N54L with a 2TB WD Red NAS installed. I have installed dsm 5.0-4493 installed and working well. I have enabled write cache in the N54L BIOS. I am trying to enable it on the HDD inside DSM but it doesnt seem to save it for some reason. The checkbox goes back to unchecked state once I change tabs. Has anyone faced this issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shteve Posted September 25, 2014 Share #2 Posted September 25, 2014 I suspect it doesn't do anything within Xpenology. Under ESXi, write performance with the BIOS write cache disabled is virtually non-existent. With it enabled, write performance matches a bare metal install (about 80MB/sec over gigabit). Why are you trying to enable it within Xpenology? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanza Posted September 29, 2014 Share #3 Posted September 29, 2014 It's enabled by default, it's just the check boxes don't match what is really happening. Same with the WOL settings etc. http://xpenology.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1361&start=270 . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
