I am using 16 drives in a home server RAID setup and notice performance issues with the older 20N firmware when coupled with the 28A or 3EA firmware. I would like to update everything to the latest 3EA firmware so every drive performs the same.
Below is a list of Part Numbers, Serial Numbers, Manufacture Date, and Firmware Revision for all 16 drives.
Well, I just picked up 2 at Fry's. And, thanks to myrison, I'm going to go back up there and get another. Thanks for helping me spend my money man.
If you swap the location the Seagate resides with a Hitachi are temperatures the same?
If you have only two instead of four drives in the 4-in-3 with a space in-between, do temperatures significantly improve?

I just picked up 2 of these disks...
Do these stats seem right to you guys? This is for a SINGLE drive with just one 1.81TB partition. I thought the 512k read seemed low...
and then here is my other disk
Both disks are connected to the same ICH10 SATA controller, JBOD
Hehe. I'm here to help.
Your next stop: The FT/FS forum... or, you can do like I did and just keep them all for different purposes.
They have a 3 year warranty in the US.How do you guys feel about the relatively short warranty on these units? Over here in the UK at least, the warranty is 24 months. The other manufacturers (WD, Seagate and Samsung) range from three to five years.
I would have expected at least three years from Hitachi. I'm a very happy long-time Hitachi user by the way, so I have no product gripes with them.
The RMA process with HITACHI so far has been HORRIBLE. They have had my drive for over 4 weeks now (in their hands) and they just shipped it 8 days ago (still no receipt). And they won't give me a tracking number.
Why didnt you ask for an advanced RMA?
