Displaying Disk Cache Status

This function allows the user to display the cache status of each disk drive. Any disk drives

with write-back cache enabled should be connected to a UPS in case of power loss. If the

drives are not on a UPS and power is lost during disk writes, the array will lose any data in

the disk's write-back cache.
