Hi all,
I am in the process of buying new hard drives for my Unraid system.
I had problems with SAS drives (no spin down) and thus would like to switch to SATA.
I was thinking about using the Seagate Exos X16 16TB drives. At the moment, the SATA models with SED (self-encryption) are much cheaper than without the feature, so I was thinking to just use the "transparent SED" mode without BIOS key management, and basically ignore the encryption happening on the disk.
Are there any resources I can read, any experiences with SED in Unraid? I found this thread, but it is from 2017:

Thanks in advance,
