Anyone got this Problem with Seagate 1 & 2 TB`s

[einstein9]

Dear Experts,

Anyone of you saw those 2 of Seagate, 1TB & 2TB

Problem:

when you partition both into 1/2 capacity, and almost FILL both of them with Data (till almost 97%) of total capacity
in both partitions, all the sudden, one day, the 2nd. partition will DISAPPEAR

and you will have 1/2 Capacity only, which is the 1st. partition only.

so far on the last 6 months, and based on the comments from my clients, i wrote those notes
about each case, and i came across a match in 9 cases so far. (total 1 & 2 TB)

the problem is SOLVED, no issues, but wondering if anyone got the same?

thank you

Interesting sugestion i'll try it with some ST 1, 2 TB.
But i think is normal because the common fail in this drives is ocasionated by bad managing about bac secs translator and smat. When more data in HDD more bab secs, smart info and so on. In cosecuence more failure probabilityes.

which OS did you use to see that partition was gone/hidden?

[einstein9]

to hhddrec ----->> no relation since drive is NEW is most of the cases

positivebit ------>> Win7 most

Seen none up today, but we have time

Any relationship with a particular firmware ?

in fact no relation (i`ve checked those FW with their online tool)

but as far as i MIGHT got to know, this might be a factory defect, but really Series Problem if you have some data on it.

To me was different. 2TB seagate manufactured 1 year ago about, full of data ( about 98% )
plugged onto win 7, data was not accesible.
on xp yes.
tested on different machines.
