QUOTE(ar188 @ Jan 18 2009, 03:49 PM) but now Seagate is only 3years waranty rite? better stick to the cheaper WD for new purchases until the smoke clears.. 5 years at certain shop. 2 days ago I ask some of the shop and they said no more 5 years but when I check the warranty at home via Seagate Warranty Checker .. ya da ya da .. 5 years ..   ~ until 2013. Factory date : 26 December 2008 Dateline for warranty : 26 December 2013 QUOTE(RacingTech @ Jan 18 2009, 04:59 PM) R u sure is SD1A? wat model is tat? is it for 1TB hdd or other capacity? 7200.12 or still 7200.11? please give us more clue so tat we can guest so wat is the possible release firmware..... 7200.11 - ST3500320AS (500GB) - SD1A . Most of the shop have it ..if they release the SD1A, then most of us can flash our own already... dont need to wait for the slow response from the seagate......

QUOTE(amiranna @ Jan 20 2009, 12:25 AM) why they acting like that, very unprofessional.. after this no body want to buy seagate product. It's the same one like Microsoft .. you can try to chat with their Customer Service .. most of the guidance or the URL they give at last go to the pay service method .. if you insist to ask for some guidance or help for free even it's not your mistake, you will get an unexpected answer .. |

Which one is better, send for RMA and let them swap it with a second hand certified repaired HDD with the new sticker SD1A, and then sell it or reflash the old thing SD15 to SD1A and keep it myself .. confuse confuse ..

If those newest SD1A (January 09) firmware for SD15 user to upgrade still got a problem, what happen to the HDD that origininally came out from factory with the SD1A firmware (as early by December 08)?
