Re: Disks w/non-512-byte sectors?



Found this info for FreeBSD + general background info on similar drives:

Would need to find the NetBSD equivalents of the FreeBSD commands, may or may not exist.

 

I had the hardware (Fibre channel + some generic disk shelf) but never had time to try it.

 

After buying a 1 TB disk for $51.00 recently, messing with a 75 pound, loud, energy burning, rack disk shelf that provided 180 (some failing) GB, just was not practical.

 

Will take a photo of it before it goes in the metal recycling bin!

 

Sometimes, need to move on.
