從2011年12月31日起，希捷將改變保固政策。

Effective December 31, 2011, Seagate will be changing its warranty policy from
a 5 year to a 3 year warranty period for Nearline drives, 5 years to 1 year for
certain Desktop and Notebook Bare Drives, 5 years to 3 years on Barracuda XT
and Momentus XT, and from as much as 5 years to 2 years on Consumer Electronics
.

細節如下：

The details of the new warranty periods are:-

    Momentus 2.5-inch (5400 and 7200rpm):1 year
    Momentus XT: 3 years
    SV35 Series - Video Surveillance: 2 years
    Pipeline HD Mini, Pipeline HD: 2 years



希捷表示此舉與業界標準一致，將集中投資在科技創新與產品特色，
而非為了保固返回繼續保有長期庫存。

Seagate says it is standardising warranty terms "to be more consistent with
those commonly applied throughout the consumer electronics and technology
industries. By aligning to current industry standards Seagate can continue to
focus its investments on technology innovation and unique product features that
drive value for our customers rather than holding long-term reserves for
warranty returns".
