why QNAP put ST4000DM000 and ST3000DM001 back to the compatibility list now?

my question is why QNAP put them back into the compatibility list now?
I understand that there "may be" many users complained about this drive.
but since QNAP put them back into the list, there must be some reason, and I want to know the reason.
Whether the problem is fixed or any other specific reason.
