==========

The Western Digital "Ultrastar® DC HC530 14TB HDD" (Model number: WUH721414ALE6L4)(SATA Interface) comes only in a 512e sector size by default.

According to the 2 Western Digital documents below, "\*\****512e models can be converted to 4Kn format and vice versa.***":

a) The WD Part Number Selector (please refer to footnote 1) (<https://documents.westerndigital.com/content/dam/doc-library/en_us/assets/public/western-digital/product/data-center-drives/ultrastar-dc-hc500-series/data-sheet-part-numbers-ultrastar-dc-hc530.pdf>)

b) Product manual (please refer to page 17) (<https://documents.westerndigital.com/content/dam/doc-library/en_us/assets/public/western-digital/product/data-center-drives/ultrastar-dc-hc500-series/product-manual-ultrastar-dc-hc530-sata-oem-spec.pdf>)

However, there are NO instructions or software/utilities available from the Western Digital to perform the conversion from 512e to 4Kn sector size (in Windows 10).

I have written to the Western Digital Support Portal, but they have not provided any helpful response.
