💾 HGST Travelstar 320GB 7200RPM SATA III Internal Bare/OEM Drives- High-Performance Storage Solution Review

The disk that was never listed as used (actually never listed as new) already had an operating system installed. The product was listed as OEM, which to me has always meant "new, bought in bulk, sold with no box or instructions", not "OEM used this drive and then decided to sell it". I contacted New World IT about this and asked if shipping a used drive was a mere accident or a common practice under the expanded definition of "OEM". You never came back to me. However, the drive was correct and…

It's definitely a small hard drive. There are no comparability issues when plugged in, formatted for use, or used. It's 7200 rpm, which runs as fast as expected.

Fast delivery. Well packed. Excellent price. No problems with formatting and layout. We restored the client operating system, programs and files and were happy with the result.

I bought 5 of these to replace the RAID arrays in our POS systems. I had one that started clicking after a while, so toast. Since the 30-day return period had expired, I went to the manufacturer's website and wanted to apply. When I entered the serial number it said it was not a guarantee. I thought it was only a few months old, how can that be. Then I looked closely at the disc and realized it was produced in December 2012 and I only bought it in 2019, so this disc was made 7 years ago. I then
