官方的聲明

Welcome, Seagate hard drive owners. A number of Seagate hard drives from the following families may fail when the host system is powered on:

Barracuda 7200.11
DiamondMax 22
Barracuda ES.2 SATA
SV35

Once a drive has failed, the data is inaccessible to users. Seagate has isolated this issue to a firmware bug affecting drives from these families manufactured through December 2008. Please use the following tools and instructions to determine if you have one of the affected products. If you do, we recommend that you update the firmware on the disk drive.

別人整理出來的步驟

先用
http://support.seagate.com/kbimg/utils/drivedetect.exe 看自己硬碟序號為何

執行程式後會出現


再用這個網頁裡面 3. Click here to use the serial number check utility. 把序號輸入看看有沒有受影響(輸入時可在剛剛的軟體裡面所要看的硬碟上按右鍵把資訊複製到剪貼簿在COPY到網頁

祝好運


:on_65::on_65::on_66::on_66:

硬碟型號判斷, 官網上有一支 Drive Detect 可以下載


看來是硬碟中的韌體出問題
會導致硬碟無法使用




我的PC內3顆seagate硬碟,一顆中彈:on_59::on_59:
還有一台seagate freeagent desaktop 看不出來型號

:on_88::on_88::on_56::on_56::on_63::on_63::on_60::on_60::on_64::on_64::on_34::on_34:



正在K英文說明
:on_22::on_22:



半夜備份硬碟資料
外接硬碟快滿了
看來要去再買一顆
:on_85::on_85::on_63::on_63:

還好我沒用seagate硬碟 ~~
以前用IBM Maxtor 現在已經習慣 WD 硬碟 ~~:on_79:

已經看上一台wd外接硬碟

下午打電話問問熟悉的店家有沒有貨？
消費券還沒到手
又要花錢了

追蹤一下
有人得到 Seagate客服回應

we should have it ready by the 20th
Unfortunately, an update is not available yet. The engineers are looking at the issue now, and they are looking at having the firmware updates available, hopefully at the later part of next week. As to which serial numbers of these drives that are affected by this, they are working on a addition to the web site for a serial number checker that should be up by Monday. When the serial checker is online, you can put in the serial number, and it will tell you if the drive associated with that serial number is affected by this firmware issue. If it's not affected, then you'll be good to go. If it is affected, it will say so, then you will need to call into 1-800-Seagate, have the have the model number, serial number, and part number ready when you call. Because this is a large issue affecting a large number of consumers and partners, we would request that you address this issue only when you call, so that we can assist as many as possible and expedite the resolution of this issue quickly.


1. 更新檔下星期底會好（應該是美國當地時間）

2. 會有線上檢查硬碟序號的程式，應該星期一會好


看起來，目前只能先備份資料
:on_01::on_01:

還好我都用WD硬碟~~:on_14:

那怎處理?

消費者自己更新韌體?

還是回收換新品?

我的是Barracuda ES.2 SATA (企業級)

型號 ：ST3250620NS

好理佳在，沒事！沒事！:on_79::on_79:

我三顆全中:on_72:

ST3500320AS

恭喜！恭喜！

猜大趕快去買樂透。

包中，福氣啦！:on_14::on_14:

好像只有2008十二月生產的中槍:on_47:

up大給個連結
我去看官網:on_28:

據說是完全無法開機的送修(我好像在講廢話)

還可以開機的用 Seagate 線上下載的seatool for windows程式更新firmware (但是好像 firmware的更新也還沒寫好)

原先前面 官網的連結現在進不去了

Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 drives said to be failing at an alarming rate

by Donald Melanson, posted Jan 16th 2009 at 2:09PM

Rumors flying, sensational headlines, dogs and cats living together. Yes, its another apparent rash of hard drive failures -- this one centered on Seagate's spacious 1TB Barracuda 7200.11 drives. Apparently, the problem lies in a faulty firmware found on drives manufactured in Thailand, which causes them to fail before they're even able to boot up and leaves them completely inoperable, with some extensive data recovery measures the only option for those looking to hang onto their data. What's more, while Seagate is now said to be updating the firmware on newly manufactured drives, it's apparently not possible to update the firmware on the toasted drives, as they're not even able to be detected by the BIOS once they fail. Seagate still doesn't seem to be addressing the issue publicly, however, and as Tom's Hardware points out, they haven't yet issued a recall on unsold drives, so anyone planning on upgrading or building a new PC may want to proceed with caution.

這裡進去看看

The short answer is: Firmware updates are not necessary for most users. :on_14::on_14:
