from what I see online all the ones affected are the AS models. No reports of NS models failing yet.
but the firmware for the AS and NS are similiar so I think they both should have the same risk factor.

any idea why we are not seeing reports of NS models failing?

I need some assistance from u guys here since i'm using an oem drive I might not be able to get FW updates from my ST31000340AS.
So i would appreciate it if anyone with the updated fw from seagate for the above model could send me a copy of the firmware .

Thanks
