I must depend upon Seagate to get their firmware and their diagnostics 
right.  If their firmware were so bad as to ignore all cache related 
commands, we'd probably hear about it.

Every disk that I have seen fail the manufacturer's diagnostic has also 
exhibited bad behavior in whatever computer it occupied.

But, the contrary is not true.  When it is false (e.g. bad behavior, 
passes diagnostic), either I'm confused, some other part of the computer 
is having issues, or both.  (PEBKAC is a common root cause.)

Then again, as the OP's computer seems to be a newer model, some 
hardware could be unsupported and/or the supporting device drivers could 
be incomplete and/or buggy.  I know Intel provides reference FOSS 
drivers for their stuff; does AMD?  Without a shopping list of the key 
chips in the OP's computer, there is no way to check support status.
