Hey #FreeBSD folks!
Ten years ago, disk ID labels (/dev/diskid) were often painfully encoded.
Today, my WD drives show up cleanly. Is that just a WD thing? Do other vendors show up as encoded crud?
If you could look in /dev/diskid and see what you have, I'd appreciate it.
(diskID is disabled in 15, you'd need to uncomment kern.geom.label.disk_ident.enable="0" in /boot/loader.conf)
TLDR: can I now recommend diskID labels as reasonable, or am I just lucky in my hard drives? #sysadmin
