Normally, how many years of warranty does Seagate has?

internal or external?

Ermm guys, hard drive driver should be chipset ahci or microsoft?

Internal.

2 years if I'm not mistaken. (standard HDD)

If the hardisk from my notebook, does the warranty comes with my notebook or separately?

I believe if it is from your notebook, it should be covered by your notebook manufacturer and not seagate/wdc.

Ok thanks!

hi..

looking for 1 or 2 TB HDD..

thanks!

any generic cheap ones will do

Hitachi, WD, Seagate etc etc

theres no need to splurge for more unless you think the extra warranty length is justified

Sorry if this is wrong place to ask,

Im gonna buy another 3tb hdd to do raid configuration.. but before i do so, do i need to emptied my current hdd first? or can direct set both of them (old + new hdd) raid mode..

oraitt thanks!!

If you need to add them into a RAID1 setup then I don't think there's any need to empty other (current) drives.
If you going for RAID0, RAID5, or RAID6 then you have to reconfigure the whole RAID all over means you have to empty all drives, also means you have to prepare another set of hard disk just to safe keep your data before you going for new RAID configuration.
Usually most people going for RAID will purchase the required hard disks in one go to prevent such things happen when you're out of space in current setup.
If you can wait, you should get enough budget to setup another RAID, means of purchase another system with all the required hard disk.
If you can't wait, backup all the data into other hard disk be it external or another PC with enough space, then reconfigure the RAID with your new hard disk then copy back the data.

Good luck on your RAID setup.
