eastcoastservers: Correct. I shucked them all. Back at the high point of PoC I had enough shucked shells to build a fort. Haitch has a old pic where I had hundreds of boxes lining my hallway from floor to ceiling. At the height I was close to 10PB so nearly 1,000 disks spinning. That was after replacing all my shucked 8TB drives. Then I started the transition to shucked 14TB drives. Needless to say I racked up quite a few Best Buy points over the years and even had my shucking drives delivered by the pallet from WD. Good times back then.
