Hi.

I think it was about 1 1/2 year ago when there was a big fuss about some 
Seagate drive models going bad because of a firmware bug. Seagate 
provided a firmware update for these. If you haven't allready done so, 
you might want to check their knowledge base if your drives were affected 
and if you somehow can resurrect them yourself.
