  1. So... I bought a hard drive from Amazon about 6 months ago and it began to fail. I searched for a way to claim my 3 years warranty and I fall on this page: https://www.seagate.com/ca/en/support/warranty-and-replacements/return-policy/ Here are the lines that annoy me : You must pay shipping costs for all shipments from you to us. Send your product to Seagate using the carrier of your choice. Please use a method with ability to trace shipment. Seagate is not responsible for shipments for which the carrier cannot provide proof of delivery. Your original product will NOT be returned to you. First, not only do you need to pay a third party to have service from them, they force you to pay extra to your carrier for a tracking number. Then, if they decide your warranty is not applicable, you will never get your hard drive back, nor the money you spent to buy it. I guess they are pretty straight forward in the policy, but the fact is : They may keep your defective hard drive no matter if send you a new one or not! So, depending of the nature and the origin of the damage, you may end up paying to send them something without even being sure if they will replace it. Moreover, you also pay for import fees and all applicable duties when/if they send you a new hard drive. I'm curious, what do you think? For me, it's clear, until I get a CRAZY deal or they change their return policy, I'm never gonna buy a seagate product again.
  2. Well still : I remember the website being unavailable for a while after going backrupt and I also remember Linus posting the unavailable website on Facebook. EDIT : wait... I think that was me EDIT2 : Nope : that was Linus :
  3. I was looking for a screen on newegg.ca and by reflex, I checked the price on amazon.ca and ncix.com forgetting they went bankrupt. Surprise though ! The web site is still up and actually is a little different from before, which could mean it is still managed. How is that? Do you think NCIX was given the chance to have a second life (Sentai style : bigger and stronger)? Chack this link if it also works for you : NCIX
