Description ta2002 2021-07-12 00:19:03 UTC

The standard tools (hdparm and smartmontools) won't handle the capabilities of new Seagate drives. Seagate has made management tools for these drives open source. See:

https://github.com/Seagate

The tools require four packages (the main tool and three libraries):

openSeaChest, opensea-common, opensea-transport, and opensea-operations
