The Precision was still under an Extended Warranty and DELL Replaced it with a Western Digital SATA Drive of the same capacity (WD1600JS)... Initial results from SMART Monitoring show the WD Unit is much better behaved than the Seagate, although there is a Firmware Bug leading to Incorrect Temperatures (Values are much too high) ... Additionally NO Bad Sector were found during a Destructive Read/Write BADBLOCKS Scan prior to the Cloning Operation...
