Western Digital Lawsuit for Shipping Slower SMR Hard Drives Including WD Red NAS
Where's the Seagate lawsuit? They've been doing this too for years now. AFAIK you can no longer buy 4TB Seagate consumer 3.5" drives now, the current product line is all undisclosed SMR unless you go to higher tiers.<p>E.g the ST4000DM000 (which I have a pile of in an array) was replaced with the ST4000DM004, which is sold as a direct replacement in that product line but is SMR.
