I've been happy with both my seagate drives |
| No doubt, you're worried about the negative reviews here. If they didn't include the "real name" bit, I would have throught they were angry ex-employees. At any rate, I wanted to provide some more perspective and note that, within my experience of two or three seagate drives, I have never had a failure. I trust the company and drives. |

serious problems |
| been buying hdd's for about 15 years. this has been my worst experience ever. errors and delayed write right out of the box. Seagate RMA a real headache. my guess is they have offset the the cost of long warranty with garbage service on the warranty. |

Dead from Getgo |
Bought 2 of these drives over a 2 week interval, a retail kit from Amazon, and an bare drive OEK kit from elsewhere. The OEM drive worked fine in a USB enclosure, and continues to work fine. The retail kit went into a USB enclosure and immediately reported Delayed write failures, hung up the USB, etc. Tested the drive on 3 different PCs with three different systems, used Seagate's diagnostic SW to diagnose drive. All the PCs hung up after a short while, needed to power cycle to get the PC IDE controller to see the drive again...PC restarts without power cycling was not sufficient...HD controller on drive must be bad. Seagate Diagnostic SW did not find anything wrong!!!!!!! This is bad...!!!!!
Bad News/Good News: Returned drive to Seagate, they did not have a 300 GB replacement unit, so I was "Driveless" for about 6 weeks. I was suprised to see that when they did send me a drive, it was a 400 GB...works fine in the USB2 enclosure. |
