Disable write caching on Solidigm™ (formerly Intel®) solid state drives

The article describes the steps to disable Write Cache

Summary

For consumer drives, you can disable write caching, but it's not recommended because write caching improves disk performance. 

For datacenter drives, disabling write caching isn't available manually. However, the drive automatically recognizes the need to disable write caching, and it does so automatically in certain conditions. (It detects the risk of data loss.)
