So I bought a 1.5tb seagate external hard drive so that i could back up all my dvd's, and it arrived at 12 pm today ,reason ordered so that when i went to the falklands i would have something to watch. So i transferred what i had backed up already on my 1tb buffalo and the fecking hd fecking failed!!!!!!:ranting2::ranting2::ranting2:
 
not the buffalo... the fecking new one:ranting2::ranting2::ranting2::ranting2:
 
 
Rma'd already back to the online shop i git it from, girl was very nice and said they had a few issues with this one and re ordered another 1 tb buffalo
 
stay away from 1.5 tb external seagates


I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

If it breaks so quickly I'd suspect it was bashed about a bit in the post. Any signs of damage on the package?

well i doubdt its the drive thats something wrong with (well depends on what seagate model we are taling about the 7200.10 have an software issue in the chip that has to be reflashed. the 7200.11 have basicaly the same issue where 7200.12 is their absolute best drive ever)

annyways with todays package companies you never know how your package has been treated.
