I've had a lot of success running RLL encoding on conventional disks.
However, you have two Seagate disks.  Seagate is the only company I've
dealt with that explicitely voids their warranty if you use RLL with
any of their standard disk drives.  Maxtor, CDC, NEC, Fujitsu, and
others have been very helpful.  Seagate was very hard to deal with -
no technical information, just threats.
