[57north-discuss] NSA been at my disks?

[Tony Travis]

Hi, Iain.

With NSA firmware, we now have a 600PB disk in the "minke" RAID6" ;-)

> manager at minke:~$ sudo smartctl -i /dev/sdc

> Physical block size:  3099375800 bytes

Unfortunately, the disk has media errors and needs to be replaced :-(

Bye,

  Tony.
