I'm pretty sure the Seagate warranty is no longer in force - most of
them are a year.  Maxtor's are, for sure - I've had to go through that
once before, and they were quite cooperative, too, but that was a few
years back (before Seagate bought them).


depending on the drive and how it was sold, Seagate drives can have a 3 or even 5 year warranty.

OTOH, major OEM stuff sold embedded in a packaged system is the responsibility of the OEM warranty (HP, Dell, etc etc). 'whitebox' OEM stuff bought as parts at computer stores, you're the OEM, and they have some level of warranty from Seagate, but I forget what it is specifically, its likely to be 1 year.
