HGST Ultrastar DC HC320 3.5" 8000GB 7200RPM Serial ATA III 256MB Hard Drive

I’ve been using these used drives in a NAS for five years. Even used, they last longer than standard drives.

his is not a retail genuine product. The box is plain, and the product is sealed in bubble wrap with anti-static plastic. The product itself is clean, but the manufacturing date cannot be confirmed from the product label. I know this because I have already purchased and used genuine products. When I mounted the HDD and checked the information, I found that the product had already been used for nearly 40,000 hours. I don't know if the meaning of "NEW" on the page is different from what I know as "NEW," but I have decided to request a refund. There is no mention of this anywhere on the page.

This is the second 8 TB drive I purchased from FusionTech for my Ubiquity system. Great drive and good price.

This drive IS NOT for US sale. Immediately after I received it I entered the serial number at the WD website to check on the warranty and it said: Status: OUT OF REGION Description: VL8 Drive ASM 8.0TB, 512e, SATA P3_PWDIS_Not Support, OEM-AP, Secure Erase Note sure what "Secure Erase" means but the "Not Supported" means WD won't do anything if the unit breaks. The seller should state this in the description somewhere. Waste of my time!

Drive has had a month of uptime or so and is still working . its a bit of a noisy drive with its clicks but i have it in an open case currently so that contributes. seeking is maybe the most noise it makes generally .

Mine arrive with 33987 power on hours (1416 Days and 3 Hours) without warranty due to being sold to a system manufacturer, pretty much what you'll get is a refurbish unit already being used and repacked, another ultrastar unit I have previously purchase through amazon was a brand one unit which still have "IN LIMITED WARRANTY", this just has become a lottery

These are refurbished drives. One I received had 20,000 hour runtime, the second 30,000 hours. Be aware this product is not new, but refurbished .

It is recommended that sellers clearly indicate that this hard drive is second-hand.
