Looking for a disk-drive for Autodesk Direct Storage and some othe questions...

[george.hellas]

Hi Everybody

We are looking for disk drives for our Autodesk Direct Storage 14.4TB

We have already one faulty disk WD 6001BKHG WD XE model WD6001BKHG-02D22V2 2.5"
Any idea where we can find some? (from ebay found only in US)

Can we use to replace faulty one like
    HITACHI HGS-HUC106060CSS60 F/W A360
or
    WD 600GB, SAS, 6GB / S, 2.5 "HDD Server WD 600 1 BKHG, 50D22 V1

If disk comes from another OS or have already partitions do we need to clear/delete partition it first, before inserting to storage for rebuild?

Thank you in advanced
