Anyone know if SMART is enabled on these? Do they have custom HP firmware?

Looking for something like this for a mirror boot on my FreeNAS box. I want to get away from USB drives. Looks like no shipping to Canada on this one...

Another seller had this drive listed for $18.99 w/FS and BO. I offered 15 bucks yesterday. Seller just accepted the offer. Too bad it was a one off.

I use them to boot a mirror'ed pfsense in my R210ii for over 6months.

I've observed no issues at all with them. I've been buying these :
Samsung 32GB MSATA / PCI-E SDD MZMPC032HBCD-000D1 MZ-MPC032D 15z-5523 dell | eBay
Thanks for feedback.

I'm not sure if I want to go that route for my pfsense appliance replacement due to AES-NI requirements and save power, or just throw in 2x S3500 80gb. The power usage difference during usage is rather drastic. I no doubt could recoup the $, just not sure it's worth the hassle of buying/selling/shipping :)

We do go without power for days sometimes so it will no doubt let me run longer on batteries, then again my fiber equipment will use at-least 5x as much as the pfsense router so it's kind of a wash over 2-4w...
