Shipping
When transporting or shipping a drive, use only a Seagate-approved container. Keep your original box. Seagate approved containers are
easily identified by the Seagate Approved Package label. Shipping a drive in a non-approved container voids the drive warranty.
Seagate repair centers may refuse receipt of components improperly packaged or obviously damaged in transit. Contact your authorized
Seagate distributor to purchase additional boxes. Seagate recommends shipping by an air-ride carrier experienced in handling computer
equipment.
Storage
The maximum recommended storage period for the drive in a non-operational environment is 90 days. Drives should be stored in the
original unopened Seagate shipping packaging whenever possible. Once the drive is removed from the Seagate original packaging the
recommended maximum period between drive operation cycles is 30 days. During any storage period the drive non-operational tempera-
ture, humidity, wet bulb, atmospheric conditions, shock, vibration, magnetic and electrical field specifications should be followed.
Product repair and return information
Seagate customer service centers are the only facilities authorized to service Seagate drives. Seagate does not sanction any third-party
repair facilities. Any unauthorized repair or tampering with the factory seal voids the warranty.
