Better to leave it to the OS, which can use main RAM for       its filesystem caching, on the fast side of that drive interface.              When a drive says to the OS driver “write is done”, it should mean “write       has gone to actual persistent storage”, not “write is in my cache”.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
