This Samsung is just $10 more and has better reviews. The only thing lacking is that it is 5400rpm vs 5900rpm for the Seagate.
If you get a first gen drive (1.5TB and 2TB) just pray or have them replaced by Seagate. I wouldn't know how to tell anyone how one can determine if it's gen1/gen2. Sorry.
I have 4 of these but ONLY after having 2 DOA, 2 died shortly after using and Seagate replacing them.
At least one of the reviews said that if you have to RMA it they send you a recertified drive. Is that true?
