Best guess is that the controllers didn't bother to turn off the hard drive write caches and lost what they wrote just before the power loss. You may have to connect the drive to a dumb controller just to be able to get at the drive and change its settings.

It does help a lot of you have high transaction commit rates but you definitely can't trust the controller and drive makers to get it right.
