General Comments
My drive twice failed to format when new, after that it was fine... it was used to back up 2 of my pc's.. it was used to play music from for about a month, then one day it "lost" 1/3 of the data, a restart "lost" another 1/3... I tried to copy some of the lost data back and despite the drive not listing the items, it (the OS) said this file already exists... Hmmm
Now it isnt recognised by the system at all, and hangs the machine if it is attached.
Seagate refuse to honour the warranty as it was bought from a computer fair and they say the vendor isnt an approved Seagate dealer... Great.... NOT
