Looking at this review, it seems the SSD and spinning disk are in a flat LBA address space:

So I guess that the Windows utility just submits SET MAX ADDRESS to reveal the hidden (spinning) area of the disk.

I'll have to get some to see, but a 3.5" 4TB version would surely be perfect in this case for Ceph OSD!
