Are there any 2TB and higher hard drives that work well with Linux -meaning I can take a new drive and format it with a Linux CD install without having to do lots of special work arounds. I bought some WD drives a few years ago that, unlike drives for the previous decade or so, didn't report there specs (like sector size) to the OS or bios. There are long work-arounds posted, but I'm wondering if there are any now that will just work like drives used to just work with Linux. Last time I had to format them with a Windows 7 machine with windows format. Even then, only one formatted right.
