Uh, Fujitsu might've manufactured 10 million hard drives, but only a few percent of that are suspect. And there's a big stickified thread at the top of the Technical Support forum with a few links, if you didn't happen to catch that. Personally, I think there's so much misinformation and generalizing about this that nobody really has a good idea of what drives and date ranges are affected. Just look at these couple of class action websites that collect names and stories:

http://classactioncounsel.com/fujitsu-litigation.htm: MPG3204AT; MPG3307AH; MPG3102AT; and MPG3409AH, but we'll just say anything with MPGxxxxx for good measure
http://bigclassaction.com/class_action/complaint_form_fujitsu.html: MPG3024AT... yep, that's it.
