Its a recertified drive on Woot. I like seagate but I wouldn't touch a recertified drive.
That's just my opinion

I have 2 Barracuda 500GB SATA 32MB and 1 T1 Barracuda 500GB SATA 32MB and i have never had a problem with anyone of them

Recert = already had a problem with it.
Wanna roll the dice ??
Its like buying a recertified helmet for a motorcycle. It had a slight problem with the last owner, so we cleaned it and buffed the road scars right out, but its yours for a super low price !!Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment

Very good points guys. I think im going to pass on it since it is recert and pull the old one out of my dad's old PC and maybe use that.[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v215/Mobojo/Sigs/Sig2.jpg[/img]Comment

I had my first RMA/recert. drive experience two weeks ago with Seagate. I had sent in a 320gb unit and rcived a 400gb unit in return. Thought, oh cool, until I read the sticker on it saying 'Seagate Recertified' which gave me the bad news.Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry ChapinComment
