For those of you who care support is only offered from the region the drive was manufactured for so if you need to send it back you will be sending it to England at your expense (basically there is functionally no warranty that being said I've not had a Western digital drive *die* before it had to be replaced in the last decade 🤷) also the deal is still going at the time of this comment

Edit: phone ate the word die
Edit 2: warranty info from western digital to save you going to my second post https://support-en.wd.com/app/Warranty_Policy "no warranty service is provided unless the Product is returned to an authorized return center in the region (warranty regions are identified as Canada, U.S.A., Latin America, Europe, Middle East, Africa, Asia Pacific, India and Thailand) where the Product was first shipped by WD, which may have regional specific warranty implications."
You can return it but at your cost. If it arrives DOA or defective you still have to pay return cost up front and no option for prepaid label. Then have to request return shipping cost later. No thanks

I cancelled my order. No warranty, no US power plug, no hassle free returns if there's an issue. Try my luck for another later deal
I'd imagine most people that get excited for these deals plan to shuck the drives.

Looks like WD180EDGZ https://www.smartmontools.org/ticket/1493


Update: When it first appeared as lightning deal, it said something like "following US return policy", but now that wording seems to have disappeared when it returned as a normal deal. Did anyone get a screenshot of the lightning deal version?
