I've always thought that Seagate drives are very reliable; but when I read this and my old Seagate drive got broken, I'm now baffled. My old drive (check my system specs) lasted about 2½ years. One day last December, I was just modding a game until when I saved the files and opened it again, it's telling me that the file's corrupted and after a couple of days, BSOD's are now appearing. I SMART tested it, but it's not telling me anything. I had to get it fixed so I brought it to a local shop. The technician tested it with HD Tune and it's telling us that there's a problem with the drive. The technician then replaced the old one with the Western Digital WD Blue WD5000AAKX 500GB hard drive plus he upgraded my OS to Ultimate. Heck, even my 2½ year old WD external drive (both drives are bought in the same date, May '11) is still good. The old drive is still here, I might still be able to salvage some files, but the problem is that my PC has no extra power connectors even if it has an extra SATA cable.
