I ordered one of these last week at the $59.99 USD price, got it DOA and had to ship it back for $9.09, turned out to be an expensive drive.
When I dropped the RMA at UPS, there was an *identical* box on the counter already, I had to do a doubletake and make sure I wasn't in the twilight zone! I don't know for sure if it was the same drive being RMA'd by someone else, but chances are fairly good.
I've got two of these in my server already and they're great drives, but be warned of potential for DOAs.
Newegg generally doesn't make you pay return shipping for defective items. Why did they make you pay shipping in this case?
