The previous paragraph does say "Consumer-grade IDE and SATA drives are particularly likelyfrom the pg doc:http://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/wal-reliability.html :On Linux, IDE drives can be queried using hdparm -I; write caching is enabled if there is a * next to Write cache. hdparm -W 0 can be used to turn off write caching.

to have write-back caches that will not survive a power failure."
I guess it's reasonable to replace "IDE" with "ATA/SATA" though it's pretty minor. It'd be nice to confirm that the method for disabling the write cache on fbsd is still correct and applies to SATA drives.
