Debian support on newer 4K Advanced format drives (rather than 512 bytes)



Hello List,

I was just wondering what some of the debian community users has been experiencing in regards to the new Western Digital 4K Advanced format drives? Has any one tried using one of these drives on the 2.6.26 (64/32 bit) kernel shipped with Lenny stable? How about with the 2.6.32 (64/32 bit) kernel shipped with squeeze testing?

Is the support more dependant on the kernel or does debian already support these drives?

Thanks in advance.
