I believe problems are resolved !
 
Review Date: December 6, 2008
Reviewer: Honest Guy, Huntington Beach, Ca USA
NEVER SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED:
I've watched the issue with these drives carefully for about 2 months. It looks like Seagate solved the problem and that a vocal few were ever really affected. By few I mean relative to the thousands sold. And I am not defending Seagate. This whole fiasco was unacceptable.

MY SYSTEM:
I picked up 8 of these drives. I'm running them in 4 separate DLink DNS-321 RAID boxes. I've copied about 4TB of data back and forth across them for days. My only firmware update needed was for the DLink so that it could properly handle the new 1.5TB drives.

In the end I believe all is well with both the drives and the DLink DNS-321. I will of course update this review immediately if I see any problems.

PERFORMANCE:
We are able to watch movies from this drive arrangement on 3 computers simultaneously across a 100mb network from the same drive while adding new files to the drive from a 4th computer.

This means I can be adding movies unattended to the system while watching an Epic Man movie on the plasma in the living room... while the kids are watching Monsters Inc in the bedroom... and the wife is off watching some chic flick in the Den. :)

The combination of DLink and these 1.5TB drives is fantastic and seems as stable as the WD 1TBs I was using previously.

PROPER DIAGNOSIS:
Don't confuse your drive DIEING after a week with the previous firmware problems of this particular drive. Blame the vendor that shipped the drive like it could bounce !

ON A SIDE NOTE:
I will say I am sick of Amazon, Tiger and other vendors shipping hard drives like they are indestructible ROCKS. Even if they arrive working, this inadequate packaging is certainly taking years off the life of our drives. One of my 8 arrived DEAD as a brick thanks to this nonsense. I am furious about this issue !

Will it take a class action to stop this behavior of guaranteeing future drive sales by damaging todays drives through deliberate mishandling of our purchases ?! Wake up AMAZON ! Wake up TIGER !

UPDATE: Dec 14 2009
One year later, I own 22 of these drives now. 12 are running daily in DNS-321 Raid boxes. The other 10 are used as back up drives in a drop in SATA adapter. No failures since 2 in the first few weeks, I believe due to poor packaging. About 6 of my drives came with the BAD firmware. I never had issues with that either. Call me blessed. I just think the DNS-321 and these drives work very well together.
Updated firmware now available!
 
Review Date: November 20, 2008
Reviewer: Ralph E. Richardson, Wayzata, MN United States
Here's the "consumable" snippet from an email that was sent to tech support/sales/AE's, etc.:

Seagate 1.5TB Customers,

Some Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 1.5TB hard drives may show uncharacteristic
operation when used with Mac and Linux operating systems in multi-drive
configurations. Users may experiences pauses in video streaming applications
or a dropped drive from RAID arrays. Customers seeing these symptoms should
contact Seagate Technical Support for a firmware upgrade.

In order to assure the proper application of the new firmware, please email a
description of the issues youre seeing to Seagate ([...])
Please include the following disk drive information: model number, serial
number and current firmware revision. Also, please describe your
system,operating system and the application in use when the issue arose. We
will respond, promptly, to your email request with appropriate instructions.
Screamer
 
Review Date: June 22, 2009
Reviewer: Francis Taylor,
I have measured read and write speeds of well over 100 MB/sec on the outer tracks of this drive. This is the fastest drive I have ever seen, and I have 10000 RPM SCSI drives. The price is right, too. This is an ideal drive for RAID. It is low profile and low power so you can cram them into your case without worry of overheating.
Amazon is shipping CC1H drives, and they're awesome.
 
Review Date: January 24, 2009
Reviewer: Kevin Nicholls, Milford, MI
Generally speaking, you just can't go wrong buying a Seagate drive, and this one is no exception.

Rather than jump in the fray of "OMG I GOT ONE WITH BAD FIRMWARE AND I HATE THE WORLD", I'll just let the world know how things worked out for me, because there are more than enough reviews to tell you that this is the speediest, hugest SATA drive you can buy... and that it's the worst drive ever. More likely than not, you've already decided if you're going to roll the dice, and just want to know what to expect if you order from Amazon instead of another vendor. So... here goes...

I bought two of these drives from Amazon (not the third party links), and the packaging was incredible, especially for an OEM drive. A box with layers of foam protecting the drive... in another box with packing material. They totally blew NewEgg out of the water here.

As far as the drive itself, they came with CC1H out of the box, so no firmware flashing was necessary. The conventional wisdom is that CC1H is the magic firmware that fixes the problems people were having with older iterations of this drive.

I've been using the two drives I bought in a RAID 0 configuration on one of my Macs for nearly two weeks now, without so much as a hiccup.
Good for media
 
Review Date: October 11, 2008
Reviewer: Faye Rutherford,
Not sure what the other two reviewers were having problems with. Maybe something running in the background or not enough free resources on their systems.

I am able to push 1080p HD video with no stutter no stopping or starting no problems.
I have this drive in an external enclosure using Firewire 400 and Firewire 800.
Both move 1080p video with no problem.
Moving files or data it is obviously faster with the Firewire 800 cable rather than the Firewire 400.
I dont think this drive even breaks a sweat playing an mp3.
With 32 mb of cache it has no problems what so ever.
Buy it you wont be disappointed.
We are also testing this drive as a media drive holding approximately 500 movies that have been ripped to it. Some in 1080p HD others in 720p and some in standard def. The test drive is able to stream over a network to 5 different apple tv's and 1 other HD Media Player. The drive is in an external enclosure that has a gigabit network connection and works flawlessly. In our testing while playing all 5 apple tv's and the other hd player all 6 users reported absolutely no stuttering or cacheing of the file or data.
Its that fast.
So again not sure why the other reviewers had problems with this drive stopping and starting or stuttering or re cacheing.

Quadruple Interface for Unmatched Performance and Compatibility
The LaCie 301442U d2 Quadra External Hard Drive features one eSATA 3 Gbit port, two FireWire 800 ports (9-pin), one FireWire 400 port (6-pin), and one hi-speed USB 2.0 port that is USB 1.1-compatible. (Cables for each connection are conveniently included with the drive.) This quadruple interface makes the d2 Quadra ideal for demanding multi-media applications that require extreme speed as well as universal connectivity. The eSATA interface offers a blazing transfer rate of up to 300 MB per second (3Gbits/sec), while FireWire allows you to connect directly to your DV camera.

The LaCie d2 is compatible with Windows, including Vista, and Mac OS X 10.2.8 and above (10.3 for eSATA). If you have Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, the d2 Quadra works with Time Machine, which automatically backs up your Mac's system files, applications, accounts, preferences, music, photos, movies, and documents to an external hard drive and lets you easily go back in time to recover anything.

Superior Drive Performance for Power Users
Built for power users such as video editors, the d2 Quadra features a rotational speed of 7200 RPM and a cache of at least 16 MB. Perfect for digital content creation, audio/video editing, DVD authoring, web animation, and more, the d2 Quadra can handle multiple demanding professional tasks. It can also be daisy-chained via FireWire or connected to your DV camera and is even bootable in FireWire for Mac and in eSATA for Mac/PC.

With a capacity of 1 TB (1,000 GB), the d2 Quadra can hold up to 1,000,000 photos, 350,000 songs, or 70 hours of DV video. If you purchase multiple drives, they can be daisy-chained and set to RAID 1 for data redundancy and protection, or RAID 0 for even greater speed. If you have different storage needs, you can also choose between the 500 GB or 750 GB version of the d2 Quadra.

The d2 Quadra also offers three power management options: "Auto" for energy efficiency; "On" for instant access; and "Off" for data protection. The drive also lets you back up files or launch any application with a simple push of the front blue button. This "shortcut button" can be configured to launch any document or application.

Smart, Elegant Design and Loaded with Software
With the d2 Quadra, Neil Poulton has fashioned a unique, attractive and functional drive that offers excellent heat dissipation features and space-saving options for stacking. The fanless aluminum heat sink design features exterior ridges that provide 60 percent more surface area for heat dissipation, keeping the drive quiet and as safe as possible at all times. The d2 Quadra will sit nicely in an upright position alongside your PC or Mac machines, or it can be stacked horizontally with other drives or rack mounted to save desktop space.

Set-up and use is quick and easy, thanks to LaCie's preloaded Setup Assistant that helps format the hard disk according to your needs. For instance, the d2 Quadra lets you easily create a FAT32 partition for use with Macs. LaCie's Shortcut Button lets you easily launch any application with one push.

Included with the drive is LaCie's Genie Backup Assistant for Windows and Intego Backup Assistant for Mac. Both make it easy for you to back up your files including your pictures, music, and documents, and let you restore your files to previous versions in case anything happens to them.

The drive measures a slim 1.7 x 6.3 x 6.8 inches (WxHxD), weighs 3.31 pounds, and is backed by a 3-year limited warranty.
