It went into a server. WD drives in there now with no failures.

Do a search of Seagate ST31000340AS 7200.11 drives. Seagate had a huge number of failures. A firmware patch was supposed to correct things. It didn't. Warranty replacements were the same failing drives. They cycle repeated itself.

I have a ton of Seagate drives including some that had that faulty firmware. Only one of them actually had the issue that resulted in the drive being inaccessible before I updated the firmware. On that I did the recovery procedure as outlined on several web pages and lost no data. Once the drive was fixed I updated the firmware and still have it running in one of my workstations.
