Are nearline SAS drives considered consumer drives?

If it's a SAS drive, then no, especially when you start talking about things marketed as 'nearline'. Additionally, SCT ERC is entirely a SATA thing, I forget what the equivalent in SCSI (and by extension SAS) terms is, but I'm pretty sure that the kernel handles things differently there.
