Seagate ST2000DL003-9VT166
All, I have a readynas Ultra 4 with (3) 2TB Seagate ST2000DL003-9VT166 -302 drives in it. I have firmware CC3C that came with the drives. I have read the issues people have had with these drives. I...
I called Seagate regarding the CC32 firmware and had a long discussion with technical support. Their response after talking with the firmware engineer is that the CC32 version does not have a known RAID issue, and therefore there is no firmware update for this version. However, I have three CC32 drives that have all experienced the RAID “hang up” problem.
Beisser, has Netgear observed this issue with CC32 drives? Has this been communicated to Seagate? If it was proven the problem exists for CC32 drives, maybe they would release a firmware update.
On a positive note, when you RMA a drive in the U.S., they will not send you the same drive back so there is a chance to receive newer drives (there is still no way to specify a particular firmware version for the replacement drives). It may be different for other countries.
