3 year old array on these drives.

4.5 years on and these drives are still running perfectly 24x7 on Raid6

So in a little more than four months, the disks aged 1.5 years??!

Obvious typo there. I meant 3.5 years.

So finally, I retired all the 4 hard drives and installed 2 X 4TB WD REDs. At least I got my money's worth.

can someone pretty please upload the CC3D firmware somewhere like mega.co.nz or smth?

wow, some good person shared this CC3D firmware for ST2000DL003 and ST1500DL003 http://www.mediafire.com/download/eb2sn ... CC3D-2.ISO

one should note that it would be an unbelievably valuable experience to flash this firmware onto anything that is not CC3C, for you will learn the hard way to triple check hardware compatibility before flashing =0)

Hum...thought only some series of ST2000DL003 could have CC3D: one needed to eventually exchange by RMA to have CC3D drive.
How much can we bet on that firmware upgrade on any 9VT1-CC32 drive?
Kind of scary at this point.

"one should note that it would be an unbelievably valuable experience to flash this firmware onto anything that is not CC3D, for you will learn the hard way to triple check hardware compatibility before flashing =0)"

can be translated like this:

"if you flash this on cc32 - you're an idiot."

or like this:

"NO FLASH-FLASHY ON CC32 - COMPRENDE?"
