I left out a key step I use: Find a SATA HDD with no content on it you care about and connect it to your system via sata and put a nice new filesystem on it.
Ah, yes.
(I don't know if the above works for USB3 connected drives. I have never tried that.)
Maybe. Depends on the particular chipset of the hd box.
You may also need to experiment with the 4K physical sectors vs. 512 byte logical sectors. All my testing has been with older 512 byte physical sector drives.
Right. Also, use ext3, not xfs: it is difficult to find the lba; far from trivial. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
