Re: Adding a smaller drive

My WDC WD20EADS-00R6B0 drives have 3907029168 512byte sectors for a
total of 2000398934016 bytes.  I don't buy replacement drives for raid
arrays unless 1) they are the same model or 2) I check the sector
count.  It's not a big deal to do.  The first google result for "2tb
drive" has a picture of the label that clearly shows the number of
sectors.  I'd rather do one comparison between exact numbers than look
for vague numbers and fine print compliance to some standard few if
any people have ever heard of.
