Arrived DOA, RMA'd and second was also DOA 9/4/2020 6:12:03 PM

Pros: None

Cons: Two DOA HDDs in a row, What are the odds.

Overall Review: No much more to say. Apparently it was a bad batch delivered to Newegg. I bought a third from a different vendor and I'm in business. Not Newegg's fault, but does go a long way to show you WD no longer QC's their HDDs.

Manufacturer Response:

Hi jason b.,

We regret hearing about your experience with WD Black Hard disk drive and appreciate your time for providing the feedback. Please let us confirm that there can be multiple factors that may work with or against the drive and we would like to have the opportunity to address your concerns directly as we think there were greater underlying causes that needed to be investigated with care resulting to a positive outcome.

In order to isolate the cause of the drive failure, it is recommended to connect the drive as secondary storage via SATA port to the computer and check the drive for any damage or defects.

The Best practice is to run diagnostics with Data Lifeguard Diagnostics for Windows when a drive does not perform as expected or is behaving abnormally. We have placed a few helpful links below providing more information for your convenience.

"Testing a drive for problems using Data Lifeguard Diagnostics for Windows":
https://support.wdc.com/knowledgebase/answer.aspx?ID=940

If the test is unfortunately inconclusive and you just purchased the drive then you should be able to return it to the place of purchase. However, if you are past their return policy, you can create an RMA through WD and replace the drive under warranty if necessary.

"How to get an RMA to replace a defective product, or obtain a power supply or USB cable for a WD product":
https://support.wdc.com/knowledgebase/answer.aspx?ID=8

We would like to get a chance to work with you directly to determine the root cause of this abnormal behavior and help provide a positive resolution. You can contact us by phone regarding the Newegg review.
