J89eu Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Hi all I'm getting the following error reported from the Fix Common Problems plugin: You may experience slow read/writes to cache. Write Cache should be enabled for better results. Post your diagnostics for other users to confirm this test and advise. NOTE: If this drive is connected to your server via USB, then this test and the fix may or may not work / be accurate as USB support for smartctl and hdparm is hit and missatlas-diagnostics-20190629-1039.zip Any ideas? Diagnostics attached Quote Link to comment
Abzstrak Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 Probably a sata drive, enable cache with hdparm. To make it persistent, edit your go file. Quote Link to comment
J89eu Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 This only came up after a second reboot for 6.7.2, not sure if it's related to the update as it was later on but I've made no changes to the drives Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 That check is a relatively recent addition to FCP so it is highly likely that situation has always existed but it was not being reported. Quote Link to comment
J89eu Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 Am I right in saying I need the following command? hdparm -W /dev/sdc hdparm -W /dev/sdb I have 2 cache drives so I guess both need it Quote Link to comment
