August 4, 20169 yr They are described as "pulled" drives so I doubt they have a fresh 5 year warranty on them. More likely whatever is left over if any at all.
August 4, 20169 yr Author This describes what they mean by 'pulled' they are not used. What is a "pulled" hard drive? A "clean pull" hard drive is one that was in a pre-built desktop system that was built by a system manufacturer but did not sell. The hard drive has been pulled out of the system and re-packaged in static free wrap.

A "clean pull" hard drive is one that was in a pre-built desktop system that was built by a system manufacturer but did not sell. The hard drive has been pulled out of the system and re-packaged in static free wrap. That also means that there is NO warranty! The warranty would be through the manufacturer or the pre-built desktop system. That being said, I have recently purchased a bunch of 2TB Ultrastars from a couple of sellers on eBay. They drives arrived in great condition. I'm running them in a large RAID10 array, so if a couple die, no big deal. I also bought a couple of spares.
