Howdy,

I bought a 8TB hard drive.  Seagate 8TB 5E8 Exos ST8000AS0003 is the
exact model info.  It seems to be slow.

What's the output of:

sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda

(Assuming it's the sda drive.)





Well, after a lot more googling, I decided to start over and then
decided to use a different tool.  I ran dd for several GBs and then used
gparted to partition and format the drive with ext4.  Right now, it is
doing the format part.

I'd still like to know what the output of "sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda" is :P
