I can confirm that it makes a difference in performance by watching the Reliability and Performance monitor before and after the change. Before I enable it, the drive only writes at about 12 Megabytes per second. Ater the change, throughput jumps up to 50+ Megabytes per second so that's a four-fold increase in performance! My test is the transfer of a ~3 GB file from a drive array that can sustain 200 Megabytes per second read. The problem is the setting won't stick; every time I reboot the comptuer, the check mark vanishes and performance drops back down to the crappy 12 MB/sec rate. Anyone know how to fix this?
