Bottom right corner, below the SAS icon that string of letters and numbers is your PSID. It is case sensitiveI would be happy to try sedutil-cli, but I cannot find the PSIDs on my drive labels

Did you try sed-util with the MSID (as you pointed out in the manual) or PSID?Some interesting info from this drive product manual:
Per TCG SSC specification, the PIN (PSID) is set to the MSID at manufacturing time.
WDC has specified the MSID to be the serial number of the drive concatenated 4x.
So now I have the PSID, but sedutil-cli complains: Invalid or unsupported disk
Can you show smartctl -a output?I have similiar original WD drives - WUH721414AL5204 (DC HC530) .
How can I check if there is foreign security lock and if so - how can I remove it?
This appears to indicate that the device could be spun down - how are you connecting the drives? Can you confirm they're spinning up? Depending on power source you may have to perform the pin3 trick.device is NOT READY (e.g. spun down, busy)
how are these connected to your system? expansion enclosure or those adapter cables?device is NOT READY (e.g. spun down, busy)
A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options.
The drives seem to be spinning - at least for some time after power-on and then when I try to communicate with them.how are these connected to your system? expansion enclosure or those adapter cables?
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY_T10
you dont actualy format to 520 in this case its a flag that turns on type 2 protection. i use this for my sas hgst drives. my 3108 raid card supports.Has anyone here tried to make use of the 520/528b sectors rather than reformatting to 512b?
There are are Linux kernel config flags CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY and CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY_T10 which are supposed to make it possible if I understand it correctly, I just don't have 520/528b drives myself to test it with.
T10 actually does require 520b or 4104byou dont actualy format to 520 in this case its a flag that turns on type 2 protection. i use this for my sas hgst drives. my 3108 raid card supports.
format still shows 4kn or 512 but will have the added protection. truenas scale only just started supporting these drives in hbas recently. not sure core supports yet.
when you run the sg format though it still set to either 512 or 4096. you are not selecting 520 or 4104. yes it does take up that space thoughT10 actually does require 520b or 4104b

You can see below the line you just highlighted that there is 8 bytes of protection, which matches with the 520b sector size 512+8=520when you run the sg format though it still set to either 512 or 4096. you are not selecting 520 or 4104. yes it does take up that space though
example
sg_format -v --size=512 --long --format --fmtpinfo=2 --pfu=1 pd1

Looks like we're in the same boat. in my case the drives are HGST ultrastar dc hc510 huh721010al5205, but declare themselves as netapp X322_HLBRE10TA07 with NA02 firmware. sg_format/wdckit/hugo fail to format or sanitize, sedutil-cli says the disks are unsupported.
