    Holy shit. These indeed have the same casing as my 12 and 14TB ones. And I have the old 8TB upon inspecting.

    Fuck WD for their inconsistent Partnumbers. They are lucky their good drives are actually very good. Otherwise, I went straight to another brand.

      You have the new one probably, the air (=cheaper to make, that’s the idea) one, the helium one is the older. It’s absolutely unacceptable what they’re doing, and now this cancer moved to the SSDs as well and there it’s worse because there are many more ways of putting things together and cutting corners.
