FAQs

What is the duration of the Seagate Rescue Service Plan?

The service plan is valid for two years from the date of purchase of the external hard drive.

What types of data loss are covered?

The plan covers accidental data loss scenarios, such as dropping the drive, accidental deletion, or spills, provided data retrieval is technically possible.

Do I need to send my drive to Seagate?

Yes, if data recovery is needed, Seagate's experts will guide you on securely shipping your drive to their specialized lab.

Is the data recovery service free?

The data recovery service itself, including the expert retrieval and return shipping of your recovered data, is covered at no additional cost under the service plan.

Can I use this plan for any hard drive?

The plan is valid for any brand-new external hard drive (HDD or SSD) purchased at the same time or within 30 days of the service plan purchase.

What if my hard drive is still under warranty?

The Rescue Service Plan is separate from the hardware warranty. The warranty typically covers drive replacement for defects, while the Rescue Plan covers data recovery from accidental loss or damage.

How do I claim the service?

You will need to contact Seagate Rescue Services via phone or their online portal, providing your service plan details and proof of purchase.

Unable to activate service plan

Ensure you have valid proof of purchase for both the external hard drive and the service plan, and that the purchase occurred within the 30-day window. Contact Seagate support if issues persist.

Drive is physically damaged

Contact Seagate Rescue Services immediately. While severe damage can impact recovery success, experts will assess the drive and attempt recovery.

Need to initiate a data recovery request

Refer to the documentation provided with your service plan for contact information (phone or online portal) and instructions on how to submit a recovery request. You will need your proof of purchase.
