I just brought it home and put in in my new case and swapped parts from my old case to the new one. I fired up hdtune and benchmarked it and make sure it was healthy. Well it doesn't look healthy.

I have tried swapping cables still doing the same thing. This is my 2nd seagate hard drive and the other did weird stuff too. Do you think I should take it back to the store? Im gonna post a screenshot of SeaTools soon.
 
No, that's normal actually AFAIK. My Seagate 1TB ever since I got it 7 months ago:

Thanks Danny Bui, I knew you would come and help. Its weird that these drives show that in the smart info.

Yeah. In fact, I see the same "problem" with all of my Seagate and Maxtor drives. One of them is about a year and half old so no real issue AFAIK.
