So do these new drives still have a 1 year warranty... do they still use shingling tech that causes much greater mechanical load every time you write as it has to rewrite the entire shingle block and as a result doesn't (in my own experience) last very well before failing... It does.. sticking with WD Black and its 5 year warranty then thanks. Cool names wont lure me from my position and any deciding which product to buy goes for x brand because it has a supposedly cooler name deserves what they get.
