https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-storage-pod-4/ https://www.backblaze.com/blog/backblaze-storage-pod-4/ seems to suggest their boot drive is SATA (google "WD5000LPVX"), where are you getting the idea that they're PATA?
- justinsb 12y agoLooks like they were PATA for version 1 (search for 'PATA'). My guess is that they wanted to keep the SATA ports for their storage, and the motherboard had a PATA port available. It may also have been non-trivial to boot from JFS, which is probably why they wanted a separate disk.
