No difference, just easier to use the floppy, Allthogh your way may put in more "crap" as I have not testet it in a long time, you can see if some services or logging is there, if not it's the same..

WriteBackCache must be enabled thru the RST controlpanel, and is a Raid feature only. Floppy or your install won't allow you to enable WBC, and even though it has little benefit in real world, it is smokin in benches..

No, you dont need the RST package to enable write-back cache smile.gif

By default Win7 has it disabled BUT it does show the checkmark in policies, its a well known bug.

To enable write-back cache just uncheck the write-cache box in polices then click ok, Then go back into it and checkmark the write-cache box, Click ok.

When people were saying that the latest RST is buggy, they're only referring to the IAStorDataMgrSvc.exe memory leak which is a waste of time and I don't install it anyway. So any other reason why I shouldn't install 11.5.2.1001?

Exactly the same by the looks of it. I guess in the future I should just download the 'floppy' package and save myself the effort of unpacking the installer version.

Wait, I thought checking the checkbox will "turn-off" the write back cache? It says "turn-off windows write-cache buffer flushing on the device" ?

Ahh. So even though it is checked by default when you install Win7, it still doesn't work as it is supposed to?
