Isolated? I'm not convinced
The support site says:
"Seagate has isolated this issue to a firmware bug affecting drives from these families manufactured in December 2008.
"If the online serial number validation tool states that your drive is affected, we recommend that you contact Seagate Customer Support for a firmware update to your hard drive."
I used the serial number checker on their support page, and it suggests my drive IS affected. But I purchased my drive in August 2008.
