My roommate's 9.1G Barracuda toasted and his replacement drive was just a
phone call away.  I've sent in drives myself and have never had problems
with Seagate either.  You should probably call back.  It could just have
been that one customer representative you were dealing with.  Also, you
can do it online now--this wasn't the case from the major HD manufacturers
until within the last 1.5 years.
