I tried this version on a d2 triple interface (dual drive) enclosure. Yeah,... bricked! It was attached to a 2002 Quicksilver via FW400, and while the updater gave me a "thumbs up, you have the right hardware to use this on," the results spoke differently. When it finished, I got the dreaded "The drive attached to this system is unreadable... yada, yada, yada." I then hooked it up via FW800 to my Powerbook, and got the same notice. Then I changed to USB with the Powerbook and got a notice "The drive you have attached has limited accessability. Please back it up and reinitialize" - or something to that nature. Since I had data I wanted sitting on those drives, I got out another d2 case and put the drives in that one...surprize!... they worked fine! So...it looks like this update is a crapshoot.
Ps... I put 2 new drives in the bricked d2, and all it does is continuously flash the light quickly no matter what interface I use, and Disk Utility can't see it.
