I recently bought the WDC WD20EARS-00MVWB0 because it

wanted to try out a 4k sector size disk ...

Now the drive performs quite well, is rather silent
and doesn't use much power or produce much heat, but
at first I didn't find anything in Linux indicating
that this drive would actually use 4k sectors.
