Current firmware with velociraptor?

[goldznnz]

i just picked up 2 VR retail from best buy. After opening them up i noticed their production date was June 10th 2008. and my firmware is V 3.03

does anybody know if this is the lastest firmware release for these hard drives?

I checked WD site and they ain't got no damn info on that. I have a feeling my firmware may to "behind the times" becasue articles from the web were still showing firmware in its final development in the month of June.

if anyone else could post what firmware revisions they got, they would be quite helpful for all, thanks playas

I've got two coming from NewEgg right now -they'll be here Monday. I'll update this post when they get here. I hope I didn't buy 'em too soon.

Just got two and am having problems. Did anyone get a newer firmware or info on what firmware revision they should be?

i contacted WD, they said the firmware is current with no updates. off the top of my head its something like ver 3 or something i gotta check on that to be sure though. currently both of my VR raptor are in raid 0, so not 100% sure if theres a way to check the firmware with out breaking the raid config

Anyone know if they ever released a firmware update for these drives?

Here is my HD bench, does it seem right? I just dont know why it jumps up and down so much at the begining.
