Unfortunately most common storage devices have not supported write hints, and support for write hints were ripped out last year.
Work is ongoing in T10 to add write hint support to SBC. We plan to propose to restore write hint support after there is agreement in T10 about the approach. See also "Constrained SBC-5 Streams" (http://www.t10.org/cgi-bin/ac.pl?t=d&f=23-024r0.pdf). This proposal has been uploaded yesterday.
