OK...so you're get it replaced, get a WD drive, and use the replacement
seagate to back up the WD, right?

ignore it? nope, I'm planning on getting it replaced (my comment below
about seagate customer service was me reading stories of people having
their disks sit at seagate for multiple weeks before getting
replaced--we'll see, I'm hopeful!).

don't you have a 5 year warranty on this drive? You're just going to

I totally agree that one drive is not at all statistically or
otherwise significant.
What I do think is significant is that a lot of other people seem to
have this same type of failure--with no warning signs, the almost
"beeping" noise, and occurring right around 8 months.
A number of people have indicated that seagate customer service
isn't that hot either, so I'll see how that goes.
I had no problems with the drive before this, but this was enough :-)
