WD40EZRX-00SPEB0 Drive Family Conformation

[ddrecovery]

Just had the above HDD in from another DR company.
The above drive I think is Draco.
My ROM says its Giant.
Anyone ever seen a WD40EZRX part of the Giant family?

SPEB is Giant.

SPEB is Giant.

I cross referenced it on HDDSurgery's firmware database and it lists all SPEB drives as Draco.

I can suggest you a more accurate reference source

I just finished working with one of these, and it was identified as Giant. I had to use the heads in a WD Red NAS WD40EFRX which also identified as Giant.

Great info thanks.

Does module 0xC5 still report the family ID?

+1 for Giant

yes it does, but sometimes if your drive is not supported or mcu locked you cannot access it to verify

+1, SPE is Giant

Maybe this is where the confusion stems from. This is an extract from HDDSurgery Firmware website.
