Pros: I got to open a box? They made sweet, sweet, buzzing whirring and clicking noises when I plugged them in.

Cons: Slow shipping as usual (but free). Next time I'm just buying my drives off amz*zon (seriously their filter won't let you put the names of other companies in the review?!? bunch of dwicks) prime. Cause when you need drives, you NEED drives. Going to have to wait for the RMA process and another 1-2 weeks to get replacements. Uh, 2 out of 2 dead drives. Tearing down my home server to expand a raid array and then having to put it all back together with no new drives.

Overall Review: If you're constantly seeing RMAs for a product why do you keep selling it? I should've read the reviews, and thought, 'hmmmm that might actually happen to me'. Usually I look at the reviews and go, 'pfffft mine will be delivered just fine.' The weird thing is I bought more of these because I have 4 others that I bought last year locally and they've been great. Quiet, cool, decently fast. But geez, if WD has decided it just wants to take a brown trout in a box and put a warranty on it, I need to switch brands fast.
