According to WD's web site, all of their "datacenter" drives are 512n or 512e, none are listed as native 4K. Same for their consumer drives. I have just located about a dozen Seagate enterprise SSHD and Savio 15K models that are offered in native 4K. These must be relatively new. I find no 4Kn high cap Seagate drives. All of the HGST enterprise drives are 512n/512e, select few support 520/528. Toshiba's drive spec sheets don't even list sector size... -- Stan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
