September 9, 201114 yr Seagate 3TB USB2 External Drive $99.99 @Microcenter Reportedly a Seagate Barracuda XT ST33000651AS inside the enclosure http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0355670
September 9, 201114 yr Recent Seagates (2T+) have been problematic. I would be nervous buying one with a warranty. But buying one in an external enclosure and cracking it open, voiding your warranty in the process, is not something I would advise.

But buying one in an external enclosure and cracking it open, voiding your warranty in the process, is not something I would advise. I've opened up about 15 enclosures (Seagate and WD) and checked the warranty status of some of the bare drives. They all had valid warranties for the bare drives. That's not to say it's the case for all drives, but FYI -- the bare drive may still have a valid warranty.
September 9, 201114 yr tempting... but I'll hold off myself. as far as the warranty, just put the drive back in the enclosure before returning it. unless there is a sticker that says you're voiding the warranty... are you?
