Any idea when this will be supported :-) Cliff

Cr*p!
I just installed 4 of these drives three days ago and am in the process of migrating my data across. All has been going fine but I've just found this on the HCL:
"Seagate ST31500341AS 1.5TB Barracuda 7200.11 - At this time the Seagate 1.5TB AS drives are being removed from the compatibility list. There appears to be a possible problem with streaming from these drives when write cache is enabled. We are working with Seagate to resolve this issue as soon as we can."
I can't say I've spotted any issues with this so far but wondered if there was any more info from the Jedi dudes on this???
Cheers

Edit: Found the issue elsewhere. Its apparently a 30 second hang every 5 mins or so when streaming data from the drives. Not an NV+ issue but looks like a Seagate drive problem. I've tested this on my NV+ and 4 x 1.5TB drives and haven't come across this problem - all my drives are firmware SD17. If anyone has this issue, whats your firmware version?
