New firmware? Any updates?

True about the DRM keys, and yes, I was aware of that.

However, to my original point, (somehow there was a side track :smileyvery-happy:) which was the first poster pointing to Seagate as releasing firmware more frequently.  Which as a owner of FAT+ for almost 3yrs now, I know to be not the case and I only pointed to the other things to point out that even though users have request and requested a more user accessable firmware, Seagate has ignored it’s users and doesn’t seem to care.

Also, in all the time that I have used the FAT+, there has only been one beta firmware released, which was limited to only about 10 people (me being one), which I had to sign a confedentiality agreement to even test.
