Drive makes a noise every few seconds when it should be idle; an older My Book doesn't do this. Also, the software install hung and there are multiple reports online of the exact same behavior. ...

Sold & shipped by Amazon, new, 4-5 weeks delivery. I just checked again. $224 from a different seller is on the main page, but the Amazon option's still available under "Other sellers on Amazon."...

Exactly. Some people are worried about SMR, helium/air, some about PWDIS, others about disabling encryption on certain MyBooks, etc.

Yup, most decent laptops with HDDs were shipping with fall/G sensors to protect mechanical drives. At this point though, SSDs are more common so it isn't really necessary.

No, if you read and processed my post, you'd see that I told them to ask the question they really want answered. They asked "is it shuckable" (which is always yes for these) but really wanted to...

Lastwraith brings up a good point. The question "are these shuckable" is usually asked for more than one reason. Usually, people are asking if they can be shucked and then used in a separate...

Buying two of the same exact drive to use one as a backup for the other is never recommended (not including RAID+1 in this). What if both drives had some fatal flaw that doesn't show up until...

I bought a new Dell PC that had a hard drive that disengages the read/write heads when a fall is sensed. 3rd day of ownership my dog went under my desk and knocked it onto the floor. Hard drive was...
