*Not* identical...  And my *brief* Googling suggests they're different
sizes, but you might want to double check that.

my long time experience using western digital agrees with
what your googling find.

if dan would check wd site he will most likely find physical
difference of drives and he is looking at rounded numbers that
do not reflect actual physical.

also, a drive may be specified as 3 or 4 disks, where in fact
it may only be 2 physical.

internal cpu of hard drives control what is seen at connector.
