me too, the caching is turned on and it still takes over 30 minutes to hibernate….what else can I look at?

But what if the write caching is already enabled?

I have the same issue with my desktop. Hibernate was super fast until a week ago. But has been ultra slow since then. I checked hard drive settings and found write caching is already turned on. Anything else I can try?

Thanks!

YES! It works!
I was looking for a solution for that problem for weeks. I was searching the internet for German keywords, now I had the idea to try it in English.
Thank Google I found your site, thank you I found the solution.
Thank you very much.
Best regards

For those who first like me have to think about where to change the settings for “write caching” (“Schreibcache” in German): It’s in the properties (Eigenschaften) of the respective hard disk drive > hardware > properties (Eigenschaften) > guidelines (Richtlinien)
