Perfect timing, I still have 6 of these drives from my batch last year and building a new server and was thinking I needed 6 more. RIP my credit card.



You don't need extreme skills to work with these things. I've shucked at least 30-40 of these things over the years and not a single clip has been broken. I just wiggle 4 pieces of an old gift card into the back seem, slide it down to where the clips are to release them, and then slide it out. Remove the drive from the caddy, remove 1 Philips head screw to release the sata-usb adapter board, remove the activity light plastic thing, unscrew the 4 screws that mount the drive into the case, and you are home free. I can usually do one in 3 or 4 minutes from start to finish.

Then I put all the parts in a small bag and put it back inside the enclosure, slide it back most of the way, stick it in the original box (serial numbers from the drive are printed on the enclosure *and* the box), and put it in storage for the next 2 years until the warranty expires.

I've had 2 die on me and I've reassembled them and sent them back and WD didn't say a peep and just replaced them.

The only enclosures I've mutilated was about 10 years ago when I tried to shuck the Toshiba drives. Good lord those sucked.

You are pressing this other vendor pretty hard......... Perhaps not everyone wants refurbed drives.

I've shucked dozens and not a single broken clip. No extreme skills needed.

You can buy 18TB renanufactured hdd for 227 no tax 2 year warranty through seller.

These have a 1 year. And are pain to reassemble so you will get denied warranty.
Where can you get the reman'ed 18TB?

1 year warranty, watch out if you decide to shuck them and keep the enclosure for warranty purposes.

I'm confused, why do people keep saying 1 year warranty when the website says 2 year?
