LOL you have no clue how many seagate/samsung/hitachi 1TB/1.5TB drives we have lost due to terrible firmware. seems like once we put one of those things in on a live mail server it shits out 2 weeks later.
They used to be so good, I don't know what happened either. I have a 1.5tb from them that I bought for backing up shit... had to buy a hitachi 1tb to backup my backup drive, pff.
i bought 6 1.5tb seagates. all 6 have died and now 7 of the replacements. I'm going to call them monday morning and yell at them. $14-17 each to mail them in is ridiculous.
