I didn't know what section to post this under so go easy if I've come to the wrong place please.

I read the article linked at the bottom an I have a couple questions, I had a quick look for other posts that might cover this but didn't spot any.

Do 4k sector hdds essentially mean the end for WHS based on Win 2k3? Does it have support for 4k drives, if not does will that mean it also won't be able to back up a Win Vista or Seven PC using a 4k sector drive? Excuse my technical ignorance please...

There is a huge new thread in the server storage section about this topic. Basically, it means the drive has to be "realigned" to use in WHSv1.

Ahh I found it, all the talk about WD drives.

It's here if anyone finds this first.

Thanks.
