Check this out. Sounds useful.
Also if you can, back up, do a secure erase and see what happens.
Until you run Seatools (I think it works for Samsung, if not find the Samsung equivalent), most firms won't accept a return/refund. SMART alone is usually insufficient to demand a refund.
If you haven't already, get your data backed up.
I just had two Samsung drives do this, one 7200rpm and one 5400. Mine were out of warranty, but I did at least get any data I wanted off them.
Running Seatools on one of them took ages and then crashed. The drive seems in a worse state afterwards, so if I were you I would get all the data off and then run SeaTools until you get a fail out of it. Seagate should accept it for an rma then.
