I there
I have a Seagate ST9320421AS drive and sometimes (I think it happens when it goes to standby) it makes a strange click. From what I read, it is a known problem and it is solved in SD17 firmware. That firmware is for ST9320421ASG drive but works in ST9320421AS.
I upgraded my drive’s firmware to SD17 and it is true that it makes less “clicks” but when it clicks the computer hangs a little bit. It is really annoying when I'm watching a movie, the image freezes until the drive resumes It’s normal function.
Now the drive is recognized as ST9320421ASG so, for now, it lost the warranty. The drive makes an annoying click with SD13 firmware but don't hang the computer like happens with SD17.
I know I should had made a backup from the original firmware… it is like the old story, “read the manual after break the device” lol
If there is someone that could upload the SD13 firmware or a newer version for ST9320421AS (not the ST9320421ASG) would be great :)
Thanks for your time :)
