November 17, 20205 yr Hi Unraid-Community, I have over provisioned a new SSD, it's a Crucial MX500. I followed this guide: SSD Overprovisioning. I already did this with a Samsung EVO 256GB a few years back and I noticed one minor difference. In the guide the over provisioned area is called HPA, whereas when I did it with the new SSD it was called ACCESSIBLE MAX ADDRESS. I couldn't find too much by googling so I proceeded with the tutorial. Everything works as expected, however I'm quite curious what the difference might be. Please let me know if you have heard about this. The message I expected: root@unraid:~# hdparm -N /dev/sdb /dev/sdb: max sectors = 312581808/312581808, HPA is disabled The message I got: root@unraid:~# hdparm -N /dev/sdb /dev/sdb: max sectors = 312581808/312581808, ACCESSIBLE MAX ADDRESS is disabled Edited November 17, 20205 yr by Fenix
