Re: USB flash memory write caching
Dean,
in device manager select your USB device, right click Properties, open tab
Policies and you see the
writing cache status. Default for removable device is OFF.
If your image is unable to open device manager search the key
"UserRemovalPolicy" for your device
using regedit.
Values I found are 3 No cache 2 cache on.
The full path should be:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\< XXX>\<YYY>\<ZZZ>\DeviceParameters\Classpnp
X Y and Z are ID for your device.
Regards
Raffaele
