1·
1 year agoI’ve been buying all of my hard drives from GoHardDrive and Worldwide Product Importers.
I have bought a little over 20x at this point of various sizes (8TB to 12TB) and brands (WD, HGST, and Seagate), a few years later and they’re all still running like clockwork. I also only buy NAS/enterprise grade drives.
You have to carefully read the listings, as some but not all will state a 1, 3 , or 5 year warranty on certain listings.
The hard drives always came with a warranty card that confirmed the warranty period and information on how to file a claim if needed.

I’ve never purchased an “MDD” branded drive though, which is just a relabeled drive, but by the looks of the listing, looks like a Seagate Exos drive?
