update also may kaput in the future,
dun update also may kaput anytime..

so just use Seagate (non updated working perfectly for the past months) as redundant backup and transfer/continue to WD is best solution.. but costly $$$

I took back a few of the drives and run HD TACH on it...
take a look at the graphs..
these drives are just less thn 7 days ...

are these 2 graphs for the same HDD? they were taken 1+hours between each other.
meaning before and after the firmware update ar?
or both graphs represent different units of the same model with SD15 or updated firmware?
