Isn't that Western Digital also providing such similar anti-shock packaging when they send back a HDD to customer after RMA? unsure.gif

I did not do any RMA before *touchwood sweat.gif* but I remember once I bought a 2nd hand HDD from a forumer and he passed to me inside a Western Digital RMA packaging like the one mADmAN posted smile.gif

they do??? cool...

ive only had 1 experience RMAing a WD HDD...and that one i sent to the shop so it came back to me (after about a month) with just an anti static bag....i guess u only get this kinda service if u send back directly to the manufacturer

Most probably I guess it is smile.gif. They'll provide such anti-shock packaging while couriering it to your place if you deal directly with them. Beside the need to save cost, need to be environment friendly as well tongue.gif

actually...dey send back their rma products in a very good packaging so next time u will be able to pack it using the same packaging again without disobeying their rules of rma...if u notice, the rma process for every hdd which is to be sent back, they are all required to be packed and recommended to use their very own packaging when u send it back....guess this is to help both sides..so no accidents might happen during shipping..who noes when u get the rma unit and immidiately canot be used? i m one of them...my rmaed wd 250gb with black cover used less than 1 week and i nid to send back for rma again...its faulty...tats y earlier on i insisted forumers not to get black cover hdd....after i rma again, i got back the silver colour cover..

hey iRonTech, yeah, unless you got the WD drive less than 6 months ago, else, you got to pay that, they will pickup and return the drive for you, need a credit card to do that also,

backup your stuff

I RMAed quite a number of WD HDD before and none came back with a box. All of them always come back with a Anti Static bag only smile.gif

My Fujitsu running for 3 years, and still going strong. SMART data shows it is good health. A bit hard to get for the desktop, but worth the reliability. Speed does leave a little to be desired through.
