I tried to enable this feature under my Windows Vista, with a asus motherboard (P5K-E) and a WD hdd, but it’s impossible. I put the mark on “Enable write caching on the disk” and on “Enable advanced performance” but this functions dont want to activate. If i check again the disk option, this features are always disabled….

sorry! the problem is the read caching not the write caching.

I believe it’s more to caching rather than speed. You may try enable the setting then benchmark the drive.
