Oops, I was wondering if that would happen. Heard some bad things about
them Seagate FreeAgent 1tb drives... Glad I didn't get one. I did give
you a 6 month timeline on that, didn't I?

I don't care if you lot have twitter, I don't. I want to vent my anger
at the fact that a drive less than a year old is showing signs of
behaving like a recalcitrant granny when it could be doing so many
better things, like serving me my 409 gigs of data.
Windows says, hard disk 4 D has a bad block. I chkdsk /f the drive and
it took about 15 and a half minutes and recovers files, and does all
that, and I'm then notified it has 53 KB of bad sectors. Now that's
less than an iriver drive, but see, thing about that, is my Iriver drive
has 64 K of bad sectors, and is much, much older. To add to this of
course, an Iriver is a portable device, and who knows if the owner
before me dropped it on it's head like a red-headed stepchild he didn't
want? So now I have to replace a 1 TB drive. I am pissed about this.
OK? Good.
