most of seagates drives have 5 year warranty... least their newer ones do...
you can try the freezing and the hitting of the drive if you want...
a buddy of mine had a drive that if it had been off over night you had to give it a good thump to unstick the heads... the drive worked fine in that condition for a few years... then he bought a new one and tossed the sticky one...
if its underwarranty i would just get it replaced... live and learn about backing stuff up...
