Deffered write cache hanging copies in nuke/corrupting data
Posted: Mon Sep 08, 2025 10:17 pm
I have a WD Black 256gb nvme which I've set as a 256gb cache (with an l1 1gb cache too). Whenever I enable deferred write cache and try to copy something, Windows copy hangs, and if I cancel it or restart or do anything, the source files seem to get corrupted, and the written directories are also always incomplete.
My Windows installation is just a month old and fairly vanilla still. Any idea of what could be happening? For now I have disabled deferred write because it's not behaving reliably.
