My own experience with Seagate drives has not been good!

A while back I bought 2x 400Gb drives from Maplin, it was a while before I
unpacked them so there's no chance of returning them.


How long ago? The drives will have a warranty with Maplin, but if the
shop staff act like the stupid berks they normally are, you should be
able to ship them back to Seagate. You can check warranty status on
their web site.
