Heads up: no standalone diagnostics for latest WD drives

[Keith Edmunds <kae@midnighthax.com>]

We recently put two Western Digital 2Tb drives in a system we were
building. Suspecting a problem, we tried to run the Western Digital
standalone diagnostics on the drive (note: this was before Linux - or
any other operating system - was installed). Upshot: the diagnostics for
those drives only run under Windows.
