Those models are just as bad. I went through three 7200.12 1TB drives in 
a few months. Seagate would only ship me refurbished drives as 
replacements and refused to send me a new drive.

The drives were in a well ventilated case, and they never rose above 40 
C under load.

I have since sold or destroyed the 7200.12 drives as the replacements 
continued to exhibit odd behavior.
