THIS PRODUCT SHIPS IN OEM PACKAGING - GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN
Manufacturers sometimes offer discounts when large quantities of products are purchased without fancy, colorful, retail packaging. We take advantage of these opportunities to bring you the same quality, retail product at a lower price. Retail packaging is designed to look good on a store shelf and attract your attention. It frequently includes more paper, plastic and cardboard than needed. OEM packaging is not as visually attractive but is far more economical and because OEM packaging uses less paper, plastic, ink and cardboard it creates less waste and is better for the environment. Although OEM packaged product ships in a plain white or brown box you can be assured it is the same quality product as the retail packaged version. Buying OEM packaged products saves you money and helps save the planet…GO GREEN AND SAVE GREEN. Included accessories, software, documentation, and manufacturer warranties on OEM products may vary from retail versions. Please review our detailed specifications and photo gallery for included accessories and see below for warranty information.

Great warranty service

Great performance on these drives. They fly for VMWare and dumping hundreds of gigs back and forth. I believe mine might be from a sub-par batch though. I picked up two of these on Black Friday 2 years ago. At around 9 months, I got a syslog message that one suddenly had 500 bad sectors. Must have been a bad patch on the disk. Getting it swapped under warranty was super easy. About 13 months after the original purchase, the other got 40 bad sectors. 1 year OEM warranty, so I'm stuck with it, but that number hasn't increased at all in 11 months. This might explain why I got them for so cheap :-(

Great drive for performance and reliable.

I have had this running for 3 months, and its been flawless. Great Hard drive and runs extremely quiet. Very quick and has had no indications of any problems. my only issue was the price, could be a tad lower, but they say you get what you pay for. The 5 Year warranty is excellent.
