In the previous discussion we found that the disk reports 512 sector size, but

Seems that support of this disks is already commited in CURRENT, will try it

Hello.
Thank you for the information.
In 8-STABLE snapshot 201002 diskinfo shows 512k sector size yet.
I will try CURRENT tomorrow.

Advanced Format disks reports 512, but there is another command in ATA standard
which can tell us if it uses 4k sector.

Ok, in case of GPT? :-)
GPT implementation can be the simplest solution to this problem compared to
implementing additional ATA commands to determine if disk is in Advanced Format.

That depends on the underlying partition scheme. My guess is "no".
(it all boils down to whether the desired logical sector size can
somehow be recorded on-disk)

No, no.
I mean that gpart should act like gnop presenting another sector size to user.
I that possible at all?

I don't quite see how that would work - do you mean gpart should
configure a gnop?
Hello.
There is only one possibility to change sector size of physical disk (gnop -S
4096 ...).
May be it is possible to add such possibility to gpart? e.g. gpart create -S
4096 -t gpt ad0?
It will help all unlucky WD Advanced Format disks users. :-D
