From: Per Forlin <perfn@xxxxxxxx> If the disk has no write cache the following errors are being logged. * sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] No Caching mode page found * sd 1:0:0:0: [sdb] Assuming drive cache: write through Lower the severity from error to info. The absence of a write cache should not be treated as an error. There are many portable drives that don't have a write cache.
