You could go for a 5 year warranty from Seagate.

>From the FAQ.

What products will now carry a 5-year warranty?
All products that are available thru channels with the exception of
external
hard drives sold thru retail outlets.

Will hard drives with high capacity, SATA, or larger cache continue to
offer
a longer warranty than other drives?
No, all drives will have a 5-year warranty.

Does the 5-year warranty apply to a Retail Kit purchased after the new
warranty date, even if the printed box indicates only a 3-year warranty?
Yes.

Does the 5-year warranty apply to products that customers may have
bought
just last week?
The warranty is retroactive to all eligible drives shipped after June 1,
2004.
