This hurts my guts. It's like yesterday I bought these for $125? $140. Something like that. So cheap now…

Similar predicament, got it for $107 after coupon a few days ago on eBay. But this one is from Newegg, I'll take the hit.

FWIW, The model WUH721414ALE604 has power disable pin 3 support, which may not play nicely with NAS servers. There are ways around it, google "hack on the SATA connector pin #3"

E604 = 512e SATA 6Gb/s + Power disable pin 3 support + no encryption

Seller includes an adapter in case you run into this issue. I bought the 12tb model from them, and it's currently in my NAS now.

Other than that tiny return label, I found the return process pretty straightforward. I managed to receive 2 bad drives out of 2 purchased, so I can speak on the quality of the product. Given the Newegg nightmare stories I'd rather deal with them direct or through a more whatever the word is for it outlet.

In for 2, though I really should buy 6 to replace my 4x12TB array that's almost full. Hard to beat the price.

What software do you use to test if the hard drive is bad?

Newegg will go out of their way to protect and enable shady/shitty sellers, and their support is terrible. Though this particular seller is fine, I'd try to find their listings somewhere else rather than support Newegg in any way.

Refurbished hard drive is a like a condom with a tiny hole in it. The chance is still there they both won't work Smilie…… I wouldn't dare store important data unless it's in RAID configuration in NAS and they're striped so if one goes, you still OK…
More like a used condom. It might not break but it has be stretched. If it fails and your partner gets pregnant, they will only replace it with another used condom.

These are basically used hard drive that's been used in data centers for about 5 years and they are more than half way through their typical life. To call them refurbished is a stretch, the reseller do not actually replace any parts like actuators, motor bearings, or refilling the helium.
