As this drive was my second WD Green 1 TB drive, I did not expect any problems, thus I installed, partitioned, and formatted it normally. Only when the performance took a major hit did I discover the nuances of the model number.
Now you're scaring me. Which WD Green 1TB drives are 4k and which are old-fashioned? I have a WD10EADS and it has only one partition on it: server:~ # parted /dev/sdc print Model: ATA WDC WD10EADS-00L (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 1000GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 32,3kB 1000GB 1000GB primary xfs type=83 I did not notice a major performance problem until now... -- Stefan Seyfried "Any ideas, John?"
