Basically I bought a multimedia external hard drive, and filled it up with my files that I have acquired (in some shape or form) and the hard drive got knocked over today. And now makes a funny noise when I sue it, I have found from google that its the head that isn't readig the driver properly. Do you think I its advisable for me to send it back under warrenty despite the fact there might be things on the drive that aren't strcitly legal, and a great number of them infact... Or shouild I attempt to format it (somehow, not sure how yet, to get rid of any data) before sending it back?
