[Solved] Seagate ST3000DM001-9YN166: Load Cycle Count
Hi, sorry if this has been discussed already, all i could find are topics about upgrading the firmware on these drives. I've got a NV+v2 with 4 3TB ST3000DM001-9YN166 disks in it, firmware CCH4 ...

Though you can test it (and verify the SMART stats), upgrading the firmware when you are using USB is another matter.
Ah, good to know. Will test it this weekend when i have some more time.

Same result after a disk test, command timeout only increased on disk 1.
Yeah seems like it's not the drives. What do you guys think, time to open a support ticket? And if yes, can I refer to this thread if I make one?
