It's him on the other board. I don't know why he couldn't just copy and paste here to save the confusion.

Anyways, I just want to point out you can't RMA the drive like those other people have suggested since it doesn't meet the conditions.

WD should have it on their site, I use Maxtor so I don't really know in your case, but Maxtor does provide several utilities for their drives, maybe try one of them?
