Hi..
So, I got this Seagate Archive 8TB to serve me as a backup HD.
I know that this kind of capacity is not supported by every SATA enclosure. Plus, this HD is 'different' from the rest, which puts it into the 'finicky' category.
For example, even though the Icy Dock internal enclosure / caddy supports drives up to 10TB, with this one I have to do a hard reset whenever I want to get it online. With all my other hard drives (incl. 4TB) this issue is non-existent.
From the get-go the plan...
Need enclosure for single 8TB Seagate HD
