Hi Asio,

1. You sure have read this: http://www.nsaneforums.com/topic/153680-solved-need-help-with-data-recovery-from-primary-hdd/

Then/else

2. You can go the Seagate site and check if the disk is still under warranty: http://www.seagate.com/support/warranty-and-replacements/

or

3. If there are R/W errors in a well delimited area, determine that place, and create two or three or ... partitions so that these bad sectors/clusters are left in an unused (unformated) part of the disk (Crossing fingers...).

and

4. Hdds are part electronics, part mechanics, nobody should ever rely too much on them, everyone should have a little money and a (n Acronis or else) backup, were a remplacement requested.

[Anyway, I won't blame anyone; I should too, I don't either]

Hi truemate, Hi Asio,

For some time now, I use Defraggler (or CrapCleaner fame): Defraggler 2.12.628 by Piriform - http://www.piriform.com/defraggler

I'm not clever enough to know if it really defragments fine though it seems serious, but it's free and it gives you the SMART indications when you run it.

If your warranty has expired, you can try a low level format with Hiren's BCD..Back up your data before doing anything with Hiren's BCD (If you get the problem in future with any HDD having warranty expired)..

And, about the brand conspiracy, It's something depends on your luck too..I had 2 WD HDDs crashed within 2 years but I repaired one..

[DKT27]

I would have recommended CHKDSK but sending for RMA is probably the best. :)

Do note, as soon as your RMAd drive comes back (might take a month or two, it will mostly be some other drive, not yours), first thing you should remember to do is to check for these values again. ;)

Yup this thing can be critical..

Happy Republic Day. :)

May not be always, but I've seen it happening two times for me. The product I send for RMA is not always the product I get in return. As in, I'd sent a router and an printer for repair, they fixed the thing immediately and gave back. But when I sent an motherboard and an DVD drive, both were the same model when they arrived, but I later noted those weren't mine, but someone else's who may have sent for RMA.

Hmm ... now I'm worried ... Thanks for the info I'll check all the things when I receive the drive :)

Yup..My first 320GB WD HDD was crashed during the warranty, then I got a new one with 500 GB capacity.

From what i can understand, the ones you get back from RMA are actually old RMAed devices which are/were refurbished.
