Well the funny thing is they aren't openable from some details Ive seen recently.

So DR People may have to develop custom made cases that do screw back together for after they have opened them maybe some sort of "can opener" style.

But if I read between the lines, these drives are for storage longer term, not actual day to day use.

coping with storage and time factor if say a RAID 6 of these come in might be extreme
