People with 7200.11 hard drives from Seagate should be aware there's a current issue. The disks get locked into protection mode and then are "dead". There should be a firmware update to care of this issue before it appears.

The faulty firmware is SD15. Until a fix is released, avoid powering up and down the drive, back up elsewhere.

This thread centralize all the data about the working/non working drives.

The related forum at Seagate

A press realease from seagate is expected today.

Gosh, I've got at least two three of them…

Have you verified on Seagate website it is in the ominous series (enter the serial number in the utility at seagate, link "Seagate current official announcement" up here)?

Only some series in the specified models have issues. And it's easier to care of before the bug shows… On my 3 potential disks, only one is really affected, as it's Murphy's all along, it's a system hard drive…
