so just a direct attached single disk drive? is it perchance a
'desktop' type disk? those often have dodgy write buffering and lie
about writes (saying they are complete when they are just in a volatile
ram buffer). sometimes you can turn this behavior off, depending on
the brand and model drive, but do note it will slow your system down a
fair bit.
