According to Technodeals, the company which is actually selling and shipping the drives, these are "bulk pulls" and classified as "New - other". They provide a 3 yr warranty and 30 days for returns. I don't believe WD provides any warranty for these drives. If WD was providing any type of warranty I would think Amazon would have listed it somewhere on the product page but there is absolutely no mention of any warranty with the exception of the $6.40, 2-year warranty offered by a third party. Look by the "Add to Cart" button on the top of the page. I've used a number of these drives, all "bulk pulled" and have never experienced any issue. Hope this helps and does not confuse the issue.

The warranty period starts at the date of manufacture of the drives. I believe these drives were discontinued in about 2011-12, so while they potentially came with a 5 year warranty, several years have already been used. If you can get the vendor to send you the serial number you can check online. Finally, if they were destined for a non-US market they will carry no warranty from WD

Yes ...in 20+ years I have only purchased WD 5 year warranty drives and never had a problem. Back in February, my 4 year old 750GB started making noise but, did not crash. I sent it in under warranty and WD sent me a 1T unit to replace ....that's why I stick with WD. Make sure you purchase from an authorized seller

Warranty info is at: http://support.wdc.com/warranty/policy.asp?custtype=end〈=en The date is dependent on the Serial Number which you can check at: http://wdsupport.wdc.com/warranty/warrantycheck.asp?custtype=end Then, of course, know exactly what the return/warranty policy of the vendor you are buying them from. You may have to deal directly with the manufacturer. It's been my experience with only a single failure though, they replaced it within about two weeks after I return the failed drive.

The drive I purchased was a 1 TB unit (DOA), from Aeon Micro. WD indicated no warranty, but Aeon shows a 1 year warranty, presumably with them.

James, I am not certain why the listing is showing this only has a 10 year warranty. Listing's on Amazon are generic and we do not directly make them, we use the best listing Amazon has to offer to reflect the item we are selling. This does have the Steiner Limited Lifetime warranty.

I am sure it does, the few I have installed have had glitches in them. Netgear is a great brand, one of the best for the price it's just this model I have had lots of trouble with. Hope this helps

Also , if you like I have this item onsale for 1099.00, I purchase the rack mounted version and have no need for 2. So if you like you can pick it up and save 150.00 off. look on ebay, under sto04414, it's a great price on a fairly new NAS.

Like all NETGEAR ProSafe Smart Switches, the GS748T is backed by the NETGEAR ProSafe Lifetime Warranty†, and 1-Year ProSupport 24x7 Advanced Technical Support*. http://www.netgear.com/business/products/switches/smart-switches/gs748t.aspx

This model is version 2...you should skip the Netgear 3700 as this is an "N" device and move on to the next generation "AC" standard.

I purchased this unit from Amazon and the 5 year warranty was included..and I registered the unit with the manufacturer. I suggest you call Concept to confirm..they are extremely helpful.

The paperwork states a 3 year on-site warranty and a lifetime warranty for the product itself. But I don't hold a lot of stock in those claims because Netgear isn't that great when it comes to their phone tech support. If you wanted to claim the on-site warranty to have someone come out and help/fix a problem I'm betting it wouldn't happen. But I could be wrong as I've never tried and I'm speaking purely from getting phone tech support experiences.

Yes. Visit "http://www.hgst.com/portal/site/en/support/warranty/" to find instructions/details. I have more than 10 of these in my Drobo NAS boxes, and had only 1 failure in more than 3 years. HGST warranty covered full replacement of the failed drive. The process was quick and easy.

Not sure if you can fix them - Never looked into it...I've been very unhappy with the lifespan of the small Netgear hubs/switches. I have had four - 3 of which I've had to throw out. I switched to another brand.

I suggest u don't buy this item mine was out of date and netgear wanted to charge me to update it. If this is the same item it will be out of date

Western Digital offers the 5 Year warranty and is based on the manufacture date and the serial number of the drive. You check check directly with WD on their website for warranty coverage here http://support.wd.com/warranty/index_end.asp?lang=en

On the Hitachi web site you can plug in the drive SN and find out if it is covered. Their warranties go from 1 to 5 years but I suspect that the consumer drives are only a year.

Even if others have...that's not an indicator that it will do the same for you. The expected life of these drives is around 2 years under conditions like that. Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on how active your drives are operating. I change these drives every 24 months whether they have failed or not. Then again, our drives are working hard every day, 5 days a week. I do shut the NAS with these drives down for 10 -12 hours 2-3 times a month.
