There’s a great deal on a drive from Amazon Warehouse, but I’m a bit concerned about the quality of the drive and the fact I can’t return it.

Anybody have any experience buying something like this?

    I’ve bought used / refurbished (not sure which) with erased smart data. It being all zeros was a clear sign of erased / tampered info. After running badblocks some relocated sectors showed up.
