They could have at least made a label that fits the drive cover! At least the serial numbers are not just all the same. 4/10 for effort. |

Did you report it to E-Bay? How can this seller have such high review numbers? Actually, it looks like the seller might have been the one who got scammed...hard to day. I'm curious to know what he has to say about it. |

I contacted the seller and he said that he bought them on Ebay and was flipping them, but thought things were strange. After further exploration, he has confirmed that they are fakes and that explains why none of the 2TB drives detected on his system. So, he is going back to EBay about the original seller. |
