		<description>It sounds like a cost reduction manor - hopefully not in the quality of the drives...
Hard drives are cheap enough, it doesn&#039;t hurt to replace them within a 3 year period with a newer, faster, higher capacity one. I&#039;ve had two Seagate drives fail on me within a year but luckily the warrenty service is great.</description>

		<description>There&#039;s some strange news coming out of Seagate lately.  They&#039;re not investing in SSD, now they&#039;re cutting the warranty on drives which should, by all expectations, be more reliable today than they were in the past.

For the best name in storage, this is strange.  I always buy Seagate disks, and have never had to worry about the warranty because they always work.  Since I doubt they&#039;re going to stop working, it sounds like they&#039;re taking proactive action to cut costs in the future.  But why?  And are they investing in technologies as-yet-unnamed in place of SSD?  Or are they just letting the Intel&#039;s of the world make the initial investments?</description>
