Seagate here as well.  250GB

However, not only will the drive not mount as NTFS or HFS+ (tried both),
when I boot into windows I get an error saying the drive needs
formatted!

I replicated this problem 3(!) times.  Twice on my laptop and once on my
desktop (both feisty).

I formatted the drive as EXT3 and it showed up in Ubuntu, but again when
I went into windows with it (using an EXT3 driver as I have done
numerous times before with other disks), I get a similar error about the
disk and need to reformat.

Frustrating.  Luckily I was able to recover the files that were on the
disk the first time.

For now I do not trust using the Seagate in Ubuntu.
