FUA and DPO unsupported using sata_nv on MCP55?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I've got a couple of Samsung HD501LJ drives attached to a KN9 Ultra
board using the MCp55 chipset, and I'm getting an NCQ depth of 0
reported at boot, which as I understand it is because support for NCQ
isn't in the sata_nv driver yet for this chipset.

ata1.00: ATA-7, max UDMA7, 976773168 sectors: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32)
ata2.00: ATA-7, max UDMA7, 976773168 sectors: LBA48 NCQ (depth 0/32)

Later in the boot, however, I get 
SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't
support DPO or FUA
SCSI device sda: write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't
support DPO or FUA

which as I understand it means my data ( plus the wifes picture
archive! ) is at risk, as I have write cache enabled and barrier support
is disabled because of the lack of FUA. Is this caused by my drives, or
is there something I need to enable?

Any hints gratefully received,
Eamonn
