Hey guys, if I want to get a new hard disk now, considering WD Blue 1TB and Seagate 7200.12 1TB, which will be a better choice ?

Been heard about many bad comment regarding on Seagate drive, but do they actually improve after acquire Samsung ? And disappointing on Seagate 1year warranty too.

at some person in some forum. i do not want to tell who because i am not proud of him/her. rude and do not know how to say THANK YOU after sell something. pathetic.

but this kind of model ST1000DM003 already available in the market and most shops already has stock. you need to see the model number, and it is thin because using 1 platter.

How is the reliability ? Can't really find much information on it. All of them are 7200.12

Sifuts need help here.

My Samsung F3 starting to fail on me, I decided to perform a low level format to see whether it can fix itself or not.

Since I only have 1 drive, I can only done it via DOS. Is Seatools for DOS compatible for Samsung drive ? Or are there any alternatives.

Guys, I follow up the instructions given and i got this.

So that means I have to send it back all the way to Shah Alam ? Since I living at Serdang, any other nearer option for me to return my drive ?

And also, they will send me the RMA drive right ?

First timer here sad.gif
