Nowhere in the steps a-c you are forcing the filesystem or buffer cache
to sync the data. Add a manual "sync" call, or modify cp to call fsync()
just before closing each file. Otherwise, the behaviour you are seeing
is perfectly legal, and has nothing to do with drbd - it's happening in
the layers above.
