I'm not sure exactly when did the "castration" started, but I have few
Seagate LP's 1,5 and 2 Tb, over 5 years old: they support it. But I
found out that they suck in terms of reliability, so I switched to
Hitachi. There was this 5900RPM model about four years ago, I think - I
believe it was almost the only low-RPM one Hitachi ever did; they
support it, too. And I have a 500Gb 2,5" Hitachi Travelstar bought a
year or two later, and even they support it! So, I guess I was right;
apparently, Hitachi is not into the castration business... Has anybody
seen any Hitachi without TL;DR ?..
