Sounds like something you can solve with a labelmaker unless it's over the "do not cover" portions.



On the one hand, you can make 600-labels per rack.

On the other hand, you could just buy WD hard drives at virtually the same price and not have to worry about those labels at all since the sticker is in the correct spot.

Its not that its an unsolvable problem. Its that the solution is not worth the price difference between the drives.


You could put diodes next to each drive so the tech doesnt even have to read serial numbers.
