[QUOTE="Stretch, post: 1449235, member: 25432"] I don't trust Seagate any more. Not since they released a batch of 1TB drives with faulty firmware back in 2008. They gave PC users a program to update the firmware, but only on internal drives. Anyone using one of those drives as an external or in/with a Mac were out of luck. After that, I've only bought Western Digital drives. [/QUOTE]
