I'm a bit suspicious that this is a "new" drive. Toshiba XG5 has never been sold in retail, it's only meant for OEMs. So either they got a bunch of "new" pulls, or managed to get a hold of new from the factory shipment initially intended for someone else. In both cases warranty will be an issue.

they are not authorized dealer like newegg but they get many oems. usually, if they are pulls, they state so (as they have in past)


+ they offer a 5 year warranty

I have one if these. Works fine, not the fastest drive but definitely a step up from Sata performance.
