Yes, it is SATA with writeback cache.

The disk was using IO scheduler, however at this point I'm not 100% sure
which scheduler (deadline or cfq) was the default one for the distro that
was installed. The machine is currently testing something else so I cannot
reinstall it and check. Maybe I can rerun some tests later in the week when
the machine gets freed with scsi-mq or deadline IO scheduler so that we
have 100% certain config.
