As Seagate Hard disk going bad (contains Bad sector) and seatools short and long test both failed. But the hard disk is still in warranty (1 year warranty remained).
Can u please help me how to send the hard disk to seagate.

If any one of u send ever send the hard disk to the seagate for the replacement of the drive?

Please tell me the complete procedure.

Where r u from??

I'm from Kolkata and recently 1wk ago one of my friend got his seagate pata 80GB HDD replaced from its service centre. The hdd was 3yrs old.

Search for the seagate service centre and then go there and register ur product. They will give u a date for return, go on that date and bring ur replaced/repaired HDD back.

Bad sector can be repaired, but since ur hdd is under warrenty, replace it.

Your location ?

yes i know there is software name HDD Regenerator that can repair bad sector only if it is wrongly marked. But in my case both bad sector + long test by seagate (seatools) failed.

@kanjar my location is in delhi

I had the exact same problem. They replaced my HDD within a week. Don't expect data recovery. Seagate Helpline : 18004254535

Ask all that you want there.
