Here's another discussion of the problem with this Seagate drive:

They seem to like the Western Digital Black, if it's still available.

This is the model number on the Seagate in my MBP, I wanted the 7200rpm drive: ST9500420ASG

The G at the end means it has the G Shock protection which conflicts with the Mac's Sudden Motion Sensor. Whether that is what is causing the directory problems or not, I don't think the drive should be replaced with the same model because if it is the problem it will happen again when it isn't under warranty! Like I said, I have time to make a decision.
