jang430 Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 Is there any reason these drives won't work? Do they have custom firmware? Anything need to be done for us to use them on our Unraid? SATA models Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 They should work without issues. Quote Link to comment

UhClem Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 520-byte format Although this is more common on SAS drives, it is still a possibility on SATA drives. Beyond explicit disclosure by the re-seller, it could be indicated in a Model #. In many cases, but not all, there are tools available to re-format such drives. (It is not a common issue ... so ... just a heads-up) Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Never seen a 520byte SATA drive, I guess it's possible, but that's mostly used on SAS devices. Quote Link to comment
