Expensive drive was shipped in plastic bag between two loosely fit air pillows. Foam was not used as mentioned. Drive was basically free to slosh around in box. YES, OEM drive, but there is no retail version of this drive. Don’t buy this drive from Amazon. Promised securely packaged replacement from Amazon came loose in box like the first. Worse, one of the air pillows was deflated. Don’t trust Amazon for enterprise quality hardware. Rating: 1 / 5

I bought the drive from Amazon. It arrived in 2 days. The drive was packed securely. I tested it using the WD utility downloaded from their website. The drive passed the surface scan test with flying colors. I installed it into my Apple iMac and it has been working ever since. I highly recommend this drive.

Got this for Synology DiskStation DS209 – to backup my home network. It’s a very solid drive and when using for critical backup – you should feel good that this has a 5 year warranty – that is hard to find so I’m banking on this enterprise-level drive being of solid build. I think that is why it costs a little more than comparable drives. I didn’t have any problems with shipping – mine was tight in a box with two plastic end covers holding the drive securely – end covers fit perfectly in the box.

I purchased two of these to set up in a RAID configuration on my DELL to install Windows 7. The quality of the casing and drive on appearance are impressive. As I took out my older drives that came with the machine originally you can really tell the difference. Drive was easy to set up. Rating: 5 / 5
