Contacted seller, and he confirms that the 2 year warranty his add
states is from him as seller, not from WD. Seems WD warranty is
only covered if you buy the disks directly from them, and is only
for replacement of drive and nothing else. So, not sure if I would
even call that a warranty? Not even sure how long WD warranty
actually is since disk has date of 09Sept2022, so it isn't even a
year old?? Will definitely have to create a spreadsheet with seller
and serial number and date. Usually replace drives after 3 or 4
years, but first time I've had one fail so completely...
