    I live in Kansas, where the local power pops 2 or 3 times a day...
    I offered the suggestion because that is what I do... NEVER has it SCREWED nor totally crippled them.

    I usually wait about 3 min after the power comes back on, [unch the power botton. then continue where I left off. (just like right now) lost the post had to wait..

    The cache will get screwed only when the cache is enabled.

    You said your cache is off, so that figures.

    Run a disk performance test with cache on, and cache off.

    The difference is huge.

    The OP stated he knows all this.

    The problem he has, is frequent power outs by his energy provider, after which the cache of the disks are scr*wed.

    No windows function other than disabling caching all together is going to solve this for him.

    However, disabling cache on the disks will totally cripple them.

    That's why I recommend getting an UPS.
