Oh, come now! If you still know what make and model the drives are, the
datasheets are available online.


sure they're online,but i don't remember whether they were Seagate or
something else.  and putting then in was a nightmare.    [[ for some
reason, these hp kayaks have baffles and partitions and more things you
gotta unscrew.]]  it took a REAL (hardware) EE close to an hour.


you can often (always for me so far) find your drive model info from
smartctl -a /dev/{devnode}
(from the port sysutils/smartmontools)
example output
