Hi all,

I have a new Seagate SATAII HDD (ST3160812AS) and scanned it with seatools.
The "Full Test" passed but the partition tests failed with critical errors ("One or more errors were found in the index", "One or more errors were found in metadata file records").
I used WinXP Chkdsk but it didn't report anything wrong.
Are these index & metadata file record errors critical?
If yes could I get the HDD replaced if not how can I get rid of them?

thanx in advance for your help
