I just received a couple of 10 TB HGST SAS drives (via eBay) to go in my TrueNAS server (nb: one of the mirrors that comprises my pool is a 8TB/10TB pair, so I wanted to swap out the 8TB drive to make it a pair of 10TB and gain a little more space).
Strangely, for the first drive I installed,
Anyone have any ideas what this means?
Strangely, for the first drive I installed,
smartctl
shows that the drive is 10.5 TB, not 10 TB. I've never seen this before, and I can't find anything online about this, either. I'm well aware of the common issue of SAS drives showing less available space due to 520b sectors and needing to be reformatted as 512b to show the full capacity, but I've never seen it the other way around (and this drive is supposedly a 4kN drive and smartctl shows 4096b sectors).Anyone have any ideas what this means?
Code:
sudo smartctl -a /dev/sdbr
smartctl 7.2 2020-12-30 r5155 [x86_64-linux-5.15.131+truenas] (local build)
