Sorry to hear about it bro.
My experience with Seagate has been good so far and had no issues at all.
May be you got unlucky.
By the way i prefer WD myself.

Sorry to hear about your loss but I just hope that people don't start bashing Seagate over this incident. So far this is the only thread I've seen with such thing on PG.

i bought from the only Seagate distributor in Pakistan
We also have Marsons.

I have two of these drives and 14-15 people purchased this drive on my recommendation. Not one of them faced any such issue.

I don't know what happened with you so can you explain what lead to this?

Do mention your Complete System Specs, including your PSU. Also tell me if there was a power surge.

How did you conclude the drive's death?

From where have you purchased it and for how much? Claim the warranty.

Sorry to hear about the loss. You claimed warranty ? If yes, what was the response of seller ?
I understand Seagate is highly reliable. My experience with Seagate remained excellent.

    Alan wake 2 is yet to recover it's development costs. Due to no physical release and no steam launch.
    You reap what you sow. This is what happens when you take away choice from consumers. Even with 88% split going to developers, they can't recoup costs. Meanwhile, Helldivers 2 is a massive hit for Sony thanks in big part to Steam.
