I just rceived my 64gb drive and did not receive the lanyard pictured from the amazon description? I figured this was included in the price.

I ordered the 32Gb so I don't know if it makes a difference, but I didn't receive the lanyard either (although the pictures from the 32 Gb version don't show any lanyard).

There's also a photo of the adapter label that displays all of the information on it, Sirik. It's on the initial product page, with the other product photos. I was about to upload one myself, then I saw that a photo is already there... Good luck! It's a very reliable drive with great features!

I ordered the 2TB model, and it came without a drive. I imagine that there is something incorrectly listed in the 2TB model listing.

I think I got mine from Official Amazon and I got all my disks and codes. Everything worked great. If you don't get everything you can call customer service and tell them what your missing and you can return it and they'll send you a new one!!

I forgot to mention that in my review. It does have a provision for a lanyard. I comandeered one from an old camera I had lying around to use with this case.

Every drive I have ever purchased has been new - and worked great. If I got one that was old or used I would have certainly returned it - and if you are indeed buying new and got used, I would expect that you could contact Amazon for a return.

Maybe it is luck of the draw. I ordered directly from Amazon and received the bad cardboard packaging. I have not got around to installing the drive yet(hopefully this weekend), so do not know if there will be issues.

When I ordered mine it had the photo with the Mini USB and that's what I received. Think there's something wrong with the photo currently posted???

Yes, there is a plastic moulded hole at the other end of the USB drive, which you can put a thread or lanyard through.

Mine was new. 500gig HD was included but i put in a 1 tera drive. Still works great after 6 months service through winter.

I had the same thing happen. I bought the drive on July 28th and the rebate form is from 8/1/10 to 8/31/10. I downloaded the rebate form that was linked on the product page and sent it in and got denied for my troubles. I'm going to try to see if there was a July from that I can fill out and send in.

It does not come with a lanyard. I do not see any way to hook it onto a keychain.

I just had a similar problem. I purchased what was advertised as a new drive and received a drive marked "Recertified". When I when to register this drive I found it only had 3 years remaining on it's warranty. This is my eight WD 4TB Re drive. I'm very happy with them and I have purchased most of them from Amazon. In two other cases I received an OEM drive and had to exchange it. In all the other cases I received what I ordered. Getting an OEM drive or a Recertified derive "by mistake" seems to be a common problem. The warranty is very important to me. I own a total of sixteen HD's on three computers. Over the past 15 years two have failed under warranty and WD replaced them. I just had a similar problem. I purchased what was advertised as a new drive and received a drive marked "Recertified".

I did not receive a case. Accessories were as listed "one lanyard - 2AAA batteries - one user's manual."

Bonnie,It sounded too good to be true. But i just went to zipzoomfly. you are so right. the computer by itself is 377 and the drive alone is 65. both cheaper than amazon. combined them and it goes to 359 for 1005HA-P and 40 for the drive. basically a drive for 10 dollars over amazon. then if the rebate is mail in and you get back 30, then you get paid 20 dollars to get a free drive. wish I had waited another day to buy mine. I am waiting to see how amazon deals with this. at the very least they should sell the drive for 35-40 dollars to those who already bought a machine in July. Amazon is not going to be pleased about your post. Bonnie,It sounded too good to be true.

It was included in the purchase price for me, so I assume yes.. :) Hope that helps.. Had mine almost a year now, and the way it works, I doubt I will need it.. Great drive.

Just received this 1/07/16 and it now comes with a different cable than is shown in the photo. My cable is a standard USB 3.0 (blue rectangular) male on one end and a "micro" USB 3.0 at the other end which connects to the hard drive enclosure as can be seen in the photo. They seem to has stopped shipping the Y shaped cord. There is no power adapter or cord to plug into the power port of the enclosure. I was not able to get my computer Windows 7 or Windows 8 to recognize the drive. It shows up under devices but, Windows does not assign it a drive letter or recognize it as a usable storage device.
