MFSYS25 Write-back Cache Disabled

We have an MFSYS25 Intel Modular Server

In the Modular Server control Panel:

Settings > Storage > Cache Options - the HDD Write Back Cache is Enabled

If I go to System > Storage, then click on a physical drive, it shows HDD Write Back Cache as disabled

We are using Seagate ST92000640SS (SAS) drives.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Which FW version are you running? I know there is an issue with UFU 10.3 and 10.3, and it's documented in Specification Update (PDF), errata 61.

We are running 10.4.100.20110602.29753

Is there a later one that fixes this?

Thanks

Thanks, I'll give a firmware update a try and see if it resolves the issue.
