I purchased it knowing fully well that these were SMR drives, but I did not expect 1 MB/sec both read/write speeds. This was transferring and reading large media files.

In CrystalDiskInfo I got 8 PowerOn count and 0 hours of operation.

So, it doesn't guarantee anything.
But having said that I don't think these were all used returns. Far too many in the numbers to be service return products. Most likely product line to be discontinued, or a bad batch with some issue that isn't obvious or they need to raise cash fast for cash flow reasons or the business unit for this line going away soon.
Marking it refurbished is a way of reducing warranty cost overhang.
The fact that they have outsourced the warranty service suggests that the support organization for these tools is not going to be around for the length of the full warranty term.
WD is undergoing some changes.
