CrystalDiskInfo: Results with write caching disabled look very similar to the results from before where it was enabled: The only real difference is that you don't get the initial write-cache advantage. Only on the very first write did I see a higher speed 4 to 5 sec burst. This time only at...

Here's the CrystalDiskMark test while running the first of its write tests. In the Disk Sentinel performance chart in behind, you can see that the transfer rate hit a 4-5 sec burst around 500MB/s and then slowed down to the approx 15MB/s speed that we got as the average. Here's the ATTO...
