So you can see all 6 drives under devices. But you can't claim all 6 when you go to add them to vSAN is that correct?

Just wondering if you had any further adventures with flashing Seagate firmware.
With the seagate firmware were you able to configure hardware RAID?

Apart from Backblaze. Is there any information collated somewhere that end users could refer to to get statistically significant data on the life and performance of SSDs and HDDs?
I went with Micron M500DCs because the spec sheet and reviews seemed pretty good. But I guess I'll get more of a...
