I don't get why you would post this "deal" then...

for $5 more they will print a seagate or HD or samsung label on it for you like they do with those other drives. anyone here NOT think this is not a front for the billions of dollars of counterfit hardware coming from china you hear about?

I thought White Label was a brand of scotch.

Dang, #6. You beat me to it.

These are nice! They send you a RMA box already pre-labeled for when it fails. How nice of them.

#6, you're thinking of Red, Black, Green, Gold or Blue Label (in that order). Either that or you're using sarcasm as a humorous implement. I'm probably a tool...

"Just think of the joy you'll have when it finally fails. " I don't think this comment is going to encourage people.

these are probably stolen. I had an ibm drive fail once, rma'd it to hitachi and they informed me it was from a stolen shipment. they refused to honor my warranty.

Maybe GoHardDrive is just short for "Got farked when I bought a POS knock-off hard drive".

Or maybe not.Question

For those that remember the bad (very bad) old days, it's worth noting that GoHardDrive = EagleBit.com.

'nuff said....

Ben needs to steer the newbs away from these sites, not encourage the pain and misery for the sake of a 0.1% cut of the sale and 5c click thru

Do not buy any drive with a 1 year warranty. Especially a "white label". This just screams "failed QA." I'd just about swear they bin drives and sell 1, 3, and 5 year warranties based on their QA process. It never fails that these drives fail 3-9 months after the warranty expires, however long that warranty may be.

I would not ever recommend less than a WD 3-year warranty, and still prefer Seagate's 5-year. It's not just the drive life. I really think they actually last longer.

#10 - Dewars White Label. But I was really riffing on the Johnie Walker color scheme. And yes, you are a tool. Smile

#17, Seagate no longer offers 5-year warranty on OEM drives. I believe retail and enterprise drives still have the 5-year warranty.

Got one of these for $85 a couple weeks ago. It's the coolest and most quiet 3.5 drive I've ever owned. Yes, it's actually running. Took about 7 or 8 days to get to OH from CA via free UPS.
