First time I bought a Seagate Barracuda, it died on me within a year.
Thought it was a fluke, so I bought another.
It died on me within a year.

So of course that's what gets pushed most in a sponsorship deal. bleh. Suppose it'll get customers coming right back again though.

Same. I avoid Seagate these days. Got a new laptop, seagate HDD died on me immediately. I know a couple other people who've had the same issues.
