True, but since the new ATA driver was installed in STABLE about February 25,
WCE has also become mandatory for my NEC Versa 6050 MX laptop. If I don't set
hw.ata.wc=1, kernel buffers become corrupted. Perhaps the previous driver was
silently setting write caching too, but things just don't feel as secure
anymore.
