Dear Customer:

We are notifying you that SBC-596/599 has some compatibility issues with some Seagate hard disk drives.

Seagate promises to solve this issue in the new controller. Please check with Seagate for further informa- tion. We recommend users who plan to use the following Seagate hard disk drives models with the SBC-596/599 check with Seagate regarding the availability of a new controller:
