Hello Dan Farrell,
Seagate's customer service I've never dealt with. I just send in the
drive, and a working one comes back in 60 days or so.
That is customer service, albeit rather slow service. IBM replaced a
faulty Deathstar drive in less than two weeks.

Tried to. Maxtor insists that you run a special boot

Microsoft Windows Sucks, but that doesn't mean Xbox sucks because
