In the 500gb and 750gb lists, there are listing for compatible drives with a ABYS suffix. In the
incompatibility notes. Western Digital JS/KS/YD/YS are not recommended.
It would be helpful, if these notes were also reviewed to make sure there is no conflicting information in
it.
Also in the footnotes for the seagate drives, is it the SN04 revision or the NS04 revision that is being referred to?
There are no SN listed drives, but there are NS drives listed.
Thanks,
The note for the JS/KS/YD/YS is for old drives that end exactly with only these letters, for example WD 500GB JS.
On the Seagate note this is the firmware of the drive not the part model number.
