I'd call them up, tell them to pull their head out of their ass and pack it properly.
sigh. Guess I'm spoiled from ordering with amazon and new egg. I need to see if I have any RMA'd boxes from last year- I swear they were better. hmmmmmm
Oh yes, I prefer NewEgg always, you get a superior return policy. If I got a drive that failed within the first month, I'd contact NewEgg and get a new replacement, I wouldn't go to WD.
Sure thing. I've ordered literally hundreds of drives over the years and have only received a couple shipped this way- and most of the time they were DOA.
The local hardware store sells them like yours, I can only hope they came decently packed.How do you people receive drives after initial purchase? In our continent, if you go to a retail shop (that means not online shop) all you got is "ESD protective" slim bag! I guess they ship those things from Thailand and Malaysia in a big boxes with tens of these drives with protective foam etc... otherwise they won't survive such a trip!
When you buy bulk like a retailer you get a large carton with foam inside that has 10-20 or more slots that drives sit in.How do you people receive drives after initial purchase?
