This is true. The only real difference between the blacks and the
'enterprise' drives, is that the firmware isn't crippled.

No, another difference is the RE drives have another order magnitude
lower URE. So they're statistically more reliable. And they don't have
the implicit proscription to not use them in RAID other than 1 and 0.

They have a *reported* order of magnitude lower URE, but I'm not sure if that's *real*.

Vennlige hilsener / Best regards

I all pedagogikk er det essensielt at pensum presenteres intelligibelt. Det er et elementært imperativ for alle pedagoger å unngå eksessiv anvendelse av idiomer med xenotyp etymologi. I de fleste tilfeller eksisterer adekvate og relevante synonymer på norsk.
