WD 2TB WD20EADS - Supported or tested yet?

[philhu]

Hi

This drive is out, while not a speed demon, it is 5.5ms instead of 4.2ms, but still would be cool in a N7700 or so.

Has it been tested yet? Will 2TB be supported anytime soon?

It would be nice if they supported the 1.5TB Seagate drives that many of us how now first. I also saw a 2.1TB Seagate drive that looks promising

"out" is being a bit optamistic. It's listen on retailers pages, but no-one has stock. Earliest availability that I can see is around the 25th of this month. Thecus don't get these drives any earlier than anyone else. They probably have to order them from a retailer just like we do. I pointed Yvone to Scan when the 1.5TB drives first came out.
