I lost one smaller drive years ago due to heat, but none have failed since removing the front cover of the enclosure to get better airflow. I've never lost any DATA. They've been very reliable in 4 drive RAID 5 arrays. Recently swapped four 4TB drives for four 8TB, and still use the 4 TB drives but for backing up files but now they are mounted in my PC. Review: Customer service is outstanding! - Customer service is outstanding! Product arrived quickly, but wouldn't initialize; was issued a return number and postage paid return label. The replacement drive arrived quickly and I had some issues getting it to initialize and format properly. A quick message to the vendor provided 3 steps that I could try to remedy the situation. The first 2 steps worked flawlessly and the drive is working perfectly. Very impressed with the customer service. Will buy again when the opportunity arises. ## Features - #9989; 100% CERTIFIED REFURBISHED - Passed Factory Diagnostic Software + CERTIFIED by State-of-the-Art software - Full Sector-by-Sector test to ensure best Hard Drive quality!

See seemingly same drive w/ different pricing. Need drives for dock. some have warranty, some don't. read I might need special cable?** A: Some are renewed, others brand new (and thus more expensive). If your dock is a Sata dock, then you don't need a special cable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ They work for me so I've bought more from the same seller. *by S***9 on August 13, 2025* I've bought a few of these drives in different capacities.
