I didnt update mine...it just failed on its own.

I'll just wait, mine seems to be running fine and I don't want to flash it until a firmware that has positive reviews comes out. Whenever a firmware that doesn't brick working drives comes out I'll install that.

There was already a post about there drives having firmware issues by osiris, anyways I have 3 drives that are supposedly affected by bad firmware, gonna flash them in the next day...

Updated my 1.5TB from SD17 to SD1B using the update that is now posted on Seagate's site. Installation went smoothly, booted up and the drive works still (and says SD1B). Never had any issues before but now that I've updated I hopefully won't ever have any errors.
