I've never replaced a drive under warranty so I may have this wrong. But the impression I got from poking around drive manufacturer web sites is that they all base the warranty period not on your purchase date, as you might expect, but rather on the drive's date of manufacturer. This is determined from the drive's serial number. If you're curious you can visit Hitachi Global Storage Technologies support at http://www.hitachigst.com/portal/site/en/support/warranty , plug in the serial numbers of your new drives, and find out when there warranty period ends for them. -irrational john --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
