Hello,
I have been 'googling' and I have found a lot of people warning about the 
problems with IDE write cache and journaling filesystems. 
Should I disable write cache in my systems using reiserfs3+2.4.25?

I have tried to disable write cache with hdparm (hdparm -W0 /dev/hdc) but it 
is not working  ( you can see write cache is enabled with hdparm 
-i /dev/hdc).
Is there other way to disable write cache?

Regards,

Paco
