Seagate: Check warranty - this is how it works online

If you use a hard drive from the Irish hard drive manufacturer Seagate, the company grants you a warranty period of varying lengths. If you would like to check whether a warranty claim still exists before a repair, this is possible directly online. Get an overview of how the check works.

These warranty periods apply to Seagate

Seagate is an Irish hard drive manufacturer that produces various storage media such as external or internal hard drives. Even though the company provides a warranty on all its products, the length of the warranty period for a purchased Seagate hard drive depends on several factors. In addition to the type of hard drive, the place and date of purchase also determine whether Seagate will give you a warranty period of one, two, three or five years.
