This probably falls more on the shipper than the hard drive, but here it goes.
Got the hard drive in the mail. It came in a bubble wrap insulated envelope and that was it for protection. Not exactly the way I would ship something like that, but figured, okay, maybe it provided it enough protection.
Got everything installed, and drive spun up, so thought everything was okay. After only running it for 4 days, it crashed on me. Nothing recognizes it (BIOS or slave kit). The most upsetting part of this is, I just put a lot of data on it as it is a very large drive and lost all of it. I'm hoping I can recover it from all the old drives I took the data off of .
