I've never had to have a receipt when I RMA'd a drive. As long as the
serial number was still under warranty it was honored. I don't recall
RMAing any Seagates though. The last few drives I bought have been
Samsung FWIW. The last drive I RMA'd was a Samsung 160G which didn't
die, but had weird seek errors. They replaced it without issue and it
has been my main Myth video drive for at least 1.5 - 2 years just
fine.
