SYMPTOMS
When you try to change the Cache property of your Secure Digital storage device in Device Manager in Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), the change has no affect. For example, this scenario occurs when you use the Policies tab of the device's Properties dialog box to change from the Optimize for quick removal option to the Optimize for performance option.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because Windows XP SP2 incorrectly reveals the Cache property of a Secure Digital storage device as a user-changable feature. Therefore, you may think that you can control the Cache property.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the &quot;Applies to&quot; section.

Microsoft regularly releases software updates to address specific bugs. If Microsoft releases a software update to resolve this bug, this article will be updated with additional information.



MORE INFORMATION
In earlier versions of Windows XP, the Cache property settings of a Secure Digital storage device were not available and could not be changed. This functionality has not changed in Windows XP SP2.
