..
WD is already *VERY CLEAR* on their own web site: they don't support,
and are not in the slightest bit interested in, Linux.
Mac OS, yes. Windows, yes.
Linux, NO.
So.. do your part, and don't buy them.
And don't recommend them for any of your customers,
enterprise or otherwise.
Otherwise they have no incentive to come to their senses.
Cheers
