Why not RMA?

Seagate and WD have excellent RMA programs. You might even get an upgrade if lucky.


i've RMA'd several times. i'm just tired of losing my data at this point.

Dr, thanks for that. if i had the equipment i'd give it a try.

It looks like a step that was listed as optional in one guide, absolutely must be done in another guide, so I've tried that and I'll see if the drive works properly after work.
