Not good news for Seagate. They've also announced the closure of (part of?) their UK-based presence with the loss of 900 jobs.

Oh no, hope it wasnt the place where you send the dead drives to, not that I have many Seagates expire on me

Just a manufacturing plant in Ireland it seems.

I've only ever had one fail, and that is out of about 30 that I have purchased in the past 7 years.

Thats not toooo painful for me then, but like you its single figures out of tripple figures of drives bought over the years
