This is not problem of disks, this is problem of Samba (operating systems in network are Windows XP and Windows 7 only, so this should not be problem caused by Windows).
I am asking because of risks and disadvantages. This is same as oplocks - it may be performance tweak, but it is potentially dangerous (data corruption).
----- If you are using XP and Vista you should not need it. I did not say it was a disk problem either. Please bottom post all replies. All it really does is keep an in memory copy.
