Has anyone had their defective Seagate drive replaced and successfully moved their bootcamp partition to the new drive?

What is the easiest way to do this. Does Apple help at all?


Thanks for any help on this.

I have had the Seagate replaced with a 1 TB ST31000528AS a few weeks ago, not sure what brand. I have been unable to reinstall Win 7 as the BootCamp partition won't accept it. The install goes fine until Windoze tries to format and then I lose the BOOTCAMP HD(partition) label and the installer goes in to black screen. I'm on my 14th try at reinstalling :-(

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
