Write Cache and data security

Hi,
I find the idea of your product wonderful. But I do have a question, before I will install it.
What happens with the data in the write cache if there is a bluescreenn/power failure/atomic holocaust and such?
Hardware controllers invariably use batteries or flash media for protection in such cases. Here that obviously won't work.
If there is no protection, then at least write part of the product is not for me, since the data in the cache will likely be the data that I just used and wanted to write. In other words: important.
Can you elaborate on this a bit, please.
Cheers,
Vlayke
