My hard drive says new, yet 2009. What kind of warranty do I have? I was expecting 2 year since it was a new item?

I'm perplexed why you are asking me that question, for I'm not the person who sold it to you??? However way back I purchase two such hard drives for raid (0) they are operating excellent so far. Now to follow up your question when somebody sell you an Item it doesn't mean it has to specify to be warranted for numbers of Years??? If they tell you it is NEW it means never been opened from the original packaging even if the product was sitting on the shelf for a number of years. I hope that I understood your question correctly. As for the warranty I didn't have to recourse. Sincerly

My Hard drive was brand new. 2009 is year the drive was manufactured. According to the seller you get a 2 year warranty. You can also do what I did. I bought an additional 3 year warranty from squaretrade for about $4.

Think mine had a one year different seller. Best bet is to email the seller and ask. A lot of times new means new pull pulled from an unsold system

Hello, I went to Seagate's site, typed the model and serial #'s in from one of the drives I ordered. The site shows the warranty will expire 12-21-2018.The drives arrived sealed in anti-static foil surrounded with foam in plain wire cardboard boxes. Have installed 4 drives so far with no issues.

Yep, exactly what it is, a refurbish. These drives normally come with a one year warranty, so 180 days shows a rework. The price should determine if you should take a chance with it. Good luck

I ordered a 500 gb hdd but received the SATA III version instead (new). I had planned to return it but decided to keep it and now have it in a RAID configuration with a SATA II version. So for me it wasn't a used drive and therefore I can't tell you history. My understanding is that it is a 5 year warranty unless expressed otherwise. Hope that helps.

Most drives sold on Amazon's marketplace are sold by 3rd party sellers and have NO WARRANTY. You have to be really careful, and always check the serial number against Seagate's website as soon as you get the drive in the mail. Send it back if no warranty and demand a full refund. http://support.seagate.com/customer/en-US/warranty_validation.jsp

This was a new hard drive for replacement on a hard drive that went bad. I got my on November 2013. It is working good. No complains, good for the value. I dont know what the original warranty is.

The warranty on these things is two years. Mine died 3 days ago, after two and a half years. Perfect planning by Seagate.

I'm not sure what you mean by old hard drive connections. I can tell you that Windows 7 was installed. But, I can also tell you that the computer died 5 months after I purchased it. It says "1 year warranty" but that is not true. The small print says 90-days. They claimed the description was Amazon's mistake. I complained plenty.

3 years according to the adata spec sheet on their website. It's probably 3 years from manufacturing date like all the hard drive companies are doing now.

yes it was new. I believe it has a 1 year warranty. this one showed up on win 7 as two hard drives. 300 gig and then 100 mb. you have to go into disk management and change the partitions. its a good hard drive.

The drive has a one-year warranty, when purchased from an authorized dealer. See www.hgst.com for more details.

IDK about any warranty but the drives came to me new in box. They don't make them anymore so I would check with Seagate regarding warranty.

Is it being sold as new? This might be a refurbished drive. In any event, WD's website can provide warranty info and drive status.

I have purchased two of the 750gb drives via Amazon.com (Amazon.com was the direct seller, not a 3rd party seller) and they were both new/sealed. And unless you already know this; I have been told from a Amazon customer service agent (live phone call) that unless the Amazon product page says refurb, then the item is brand new; Amazon "direct sold" items are always supposed to be new. This of course does not have anything to do if you are looking at items sold from one of amazon's many 3rd party sellers.

As far as I could determine it was a new drive. I do not recall at this time what the warranty terms were. The point became moot when I discovered that the hard drive was not my problem. The mother board was the problem.
