It's listed on the hcl (http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/20641). Early purchasers found an issue with load cycle count increasing, but some recent posters indicate that WDC has adjusted the thresholds in more recent models.

WDC has also released a new utility to adjust the head parking threshold (replacing the old wdidle). So even if you purchased a model that had the LCC issue, you can fix it (assuming you can connect the drive to a PC).
