- rasz 4y agoNobody sells 4 year old 'old new stock' drives in bulk. Just to make a point first Hitachi from the list: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E939BFY?tag=synack-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E939BFY?tag=synack-20&linkCode=...

"To determine the warranty period for your specific Product, please visit www.hgst.com." hgst.com? sure looks like legit 5 year warranty for this new drive! What do the customers say? > Do not buy from Quiet Day Shopping - USED drives Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2021 Verified Purchase Purchased 2x OEM Bare drives, sold as new. Received 2x beat up drives used for > 2khrs according to SMART logs on the drives. Lots of wonderful SMART errors on the drives as well. Had to pay $15 to ship them back. Very damn annoyed. Do not buy from "Quiet Day Shopping", you will not receive new OEM bare drives, but will instead receive used and abused garbage. Really, don't purchase drives from this page. You're unlikely to receive what you want.
