LaCie d2 Quadra v3 new firmware update
Many threads have complained that the new LaCide d2 Quadra v3 drives, introduced earlier this year, do not work reliably, if at all, under Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. Most users have blamed the "ECO mode" capability built into these drives.
I just learned that on October 16, 2011 LaCie released a new firmware update that, according to their website, is designed to "Disable ECO mode by default." This sounds promising, and I just installed it. We'll see whether it works....
