Seagate External 1 TB Hard disk - bought in June 2014, cost Rs.4500, went out of order in Oct 2017. No water, no fall down, not exposed to heat, but not working, all my precious data of 15 years gone. Complete total Recovery cost is more than 10000; this will recover only files, not recovered as per folders where you systematically stored As per technician, the external hard disk may not work if the same is connected while the computer is on due to slight short-circuit. Better connect the ext hard disk and turn on the computer.
Warranty only for 3 years. The supplier may replace the product, but the data recovery is your responsibility whose cost is more than your disk.
Advice - Better to keep important files in pen drives; storage better in internal hard disk than external hard disks; prior to turning on the computer, connect external hard disk this may avoid possible damage due to short circuit / poor earthing.
For info. This feedback is applicable for all external hard disks.
