Re: Why 4k native drives haven't arrived

4Kn drives, i.e. 4096 byte physical and logical sector, drives maybe have been in the wild for some time, ~1 year.

"Logical sector size: 4096 bytes"

And further, the LBA's are clearly 4096 bytes each based on the partition table sector start/end values only adding up to the size column if the (LBA) sectors are 4096 bytes each.

This drive is found in an enclosure, sold as a backup device, not intended for booting.
