will you believe me if i restate your question and his answer? question: if i turn off the cache on the controller and the disk what is keeping rename from ensuring that the file is never lost
answer: you can't actually know that the cache is shut off on the disk, so the question is moot. even if you don't have the cache, there's so many lines of code running on the embedded controller inside the drive that you have no way of knowing WTF is actually going on, so the question is moot. repeat ad nauseam Ben On Jan 25, 2010, at 10:07 PM, nixlists wrote: > Read the fscking thread again. > > On Tue, Jan 26, 2010 at 1:03 AM, Ben Calvert <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> On Jan 25, 2010, at 8:57 PM, nixlists wrote: >> >>> On Mon, Jan 25, 2010 at 8:26 PM, Marco Peereboom <[email protected]> wrote: >>>> I gave you the answer several times but I'll humor you and do it one >>>> more time. >>> >>> No, you didn't, see below. >> >> yes, he did. >> >> you're confusing "i didn't hear what i wanted to hear" with "i didn't get an answer" >> >> or maybe you're trolling. hard to tell at this point, honestly. >> >> ben
