Seagate increases the warranty period of your hard drives

In mid-December last year and to the consternation of users, hard drive manufacturers Seagate and Western Digital decided to cut the warranty period of your hard disks for periods of one to five years (depending on model). Decision that was very heavily criticized .

seagate finally know if listening to the criticism of its users, or is that the cuts affected in some way to their sales, but the important thing is that since yesterday, Seagate has again raised the warranty period of your hard drives.

Hard drives with two year warranty:
Barracuda, Barracuda Green 3.5 “Momentus 2.5″.

Hard drives with three-year warranty:
Barracuda XT, Momentus XT, SV35 Series, pipeline HD Mini and Pipeline HD.

Hard drives with five-year warranty:
Constellation and Constellation ES .2 .2.

Hard drives with the new warranty period began selling yesterday, but maybe some distributors and retailers still do not update their existing units to exhaust the old stock.
