If you bought an iMac between October 2009 and July 2011, you may have received an email from Apple about a failing hard drive. Some of the 1TB Seagate hard drives sold in 21.5-inch and 27-inch iMacs during this time may fail.
If your hard drive is covered by this program, you can have it replaced with a new one, free of charge*, here at Capitol Macintosh. We are an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP), and can replace affected hard drives.
This program ends on April 12, 2013 or 3 years after the original purchase date of your iMac; which ever is later.
*Data migration or transfer is not covered by Apple under this program, so please make sure to back up your hard drive before you bring in your Mac. If you prefer, we can handle the data migration for you for $47.50.

Your hard drive does not have to be failing already. ”If your hard drive is covered by this replacement program call us, we'll verify it qualifies, order the replacement hard drive. The replacement drives are free, but please note that data transfer (different than migration) is not covered by Apple, and will be charged at $95/hour if you need us to transfer your data. The hard drive replacement program is good for three years from the original purchase date of your iMac, or until April 12th, 2013 - whichever date is later.
If you believe you have paid for a repair or replacement due to this issue, contact Apple regarding a refund.
