The question you need to ask yourself is not so much the probability of receiving a defective or damaged drive... Because that can happen to anyone. The question is how you'll be treated when/if that occurs. In my case, I received 3 drives. One of them worked for a few minutes. One worked for a few hours. And the third one is still working. The so-called dents on the damaged drives are so miniscule that I definitely wouldn't notice if they were present originally. Even if I had, I would have thought nothing of them. They're THAT small, in plastic, around the SATA connector. Definitely not relevant to the operation of the drive, unless they're an indicator of excessive G forces at some point. I know I handled them with care, didn't drop them or bump them or anything. So while I cannot say definitively whether or not it was prior to the original delivery, I can say definitely it wasn't caused by me. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] https://lists.lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
