I have 3 pieces of new Western Digital WD20EARX.
In openSUSE 11.4, when I do a hdparm, it indicated that it is physical of 4096byte sectors size.
When I install FreeNAS 8.01 Beta 2, I choose the "Force to use 4k sector" option during creating a RAIDZ using the above 3HDD.
I just upgraded to FreeNAS 8.01 Beta 3 but when I view the "/var/run/dmesg.boot ", I notice it reported:
ada0: 1907729MB (3907029168 512 byte sectors: 16H 63S/T 16383C)
ada1 at ahcich13 bus 0 scbus15 target 0 lun 0
ada1: <WDC WD20EARX-00PASB0 51.0AB51> ATA-8 SATA 3.x device
ada1: 300.000MB/s transfersda0 at umass-sim0 bus 0 scbus21 target 0 lun 0
Does that mean, it still registered as 512Byte sector?
