but how can i return them if they are working correctly?
edit: fixed! mailed seagate, they replyed with this:
Ricardo,
Seagate has created a version of the Barracuda ATA IV designed especially
for use in RAID 0 applications. Because you have reported a problem with
this model drive when used in RAID 0, we would like to offer to replace
the drives you currently have with drives which are tuned for optimum
performance in this application. Because these drives are tuned for RAID
0, if used in a desktop (single drive, non-RAID) application, the
performance may be slightly less than the drive you currently have.
You may obtain warranty information for your Seagate or Conner drive by
