HEAD 0 AND 1 is damaged

Hmm, refurb bad drives and resell...then the drives is a timebomb for the poor new owners.

Absolutely wrong. But it shows the way of thinking in the rich countries.

It implies also that selling of refirbished drives is a kind of cheating ! At the same time such "pro's" don't hesitate to charge their customers with hundreds and thousands of euros or dollars for doing almost nothing!

IF Western Digital or Seagate refurb their drives I have less problem with it then average JOE would do the same....It has nothing to do with Money, just poor refurb job's by choose'ing the wrong candidates.

Western Digital and Seagate use to sell as "brand new" drives with clear traces of refurb - deactivated heads, scratches on the SA, huge P-List, etc... Are those drives "time-bombs"?

If I run the same tests as Western Digital or Seagate do on their fabs, then what makes the difference? Their chinesse stuff?

By the way , I use only drives refurbed by me and I have never had any time-bomb explosions.

So, mr_spokk stop spreading lies and miths about the refurb drives, please!

I don't think you are so stupid to trust them.

You never know what they do at factory...

For sure, their resources are more than yours.

They just upload a new revision of FW and run full ARCO + SS tests + a few pairs of B9 and BA.
