Intel G1 firmware

[darkeen]

So I bought an intel G1 (80GB, MLC) drive over the summer and never actually got around to updating the firmware to get that nice garbage collection feature. So what with the new firmware issues intel has been having, a) are the G1s affected? and b) When will a new firmware be out (they pulled G1 firmware with G2).

 

[schizo]

a) No, although I wouldn't run the newer updater to test that out. Get the old G1-only updater.
b) Nobody knows. You can google around for the 8820 G1 firmware, though.
