Seagate Constellation 2TB: ST2000NM011 - Revision SN02
I recently tested my brand new 2TB Seagate Constellation harddrive with SeaTools. Here are the results:
SeaTools for Windows
DST - Generic Short Test -> Fail
Generic Long Test -> Pass
SeaTools for DOS
DST - Generic Short Test -> Pass
Generic Long Test -> It hangs after a while and green text appears (see the attachment).
In addition, I am unable to access the S.M.A.R.T. information of the Constellation drive in Windows. None of the utilities, such as HHDScan, HDD Health etc . show any data for the drive.
Apart from those issues, the harddrive seems to work fine in Windows - I can read and write data without problems and the drive information in the BIOS seems correct.
Is this something I should worry about?
Should I RMA this drive?
