ST16000NM000J will not --setSectorSize 4096 #79
Description
A handful of ST16000NM000J-2TW103 drives, which declare the "Set Sector Configuration" Feature, are failing to --setSectorSize 4096. The Set Sector Configuration Ext commands return ABORTED. Single-user Centos 7, Supermicro chassis. Full --deviceInfo below.
Did try the latest SeaChest_Lite, which behaved the same.
# ./openSeaChest_FormatUnit -v 4 --setSectorSize 4096 --confirm this-will-erase-data -d /dev/sdh
