My laptop is prediciting harddrive failure immentaly.So I am making neccessary precausions to lot lose any critical data.At least I have the extended warenty so a new drive and install will not cost me anything. However Data Recovery could cost me a bit though.

all that means is the "smart" thing senses a error. Back up stuff and get a new one under warranty the smart thing only detects like 1 kind of failure..luckily though you got the one that warns you.

They shipped it late and it would have arrived late. Called in, they offered to ship another one free, overnight, trusted me to return the other (I did) when I could, and they gave me a 15% refund on the drive itself for the hassle. nice people.
