    WD Red drives?

    Hi guys; Just noticed although the product page for the WD Red drives shows a 3 year warranty, the WD Warranty Policy Page shows a 5-year warranty as they are classed as Enterprise Drives. And a screenshot for posterity: Yes, I am in Australia so it shows my region, but all regions come up...

    Congratulations on LAST PLACE!

    Props to Alan and whoever else is still producing for [H]ardlyMovingChimp. They still hold the [H] ethos and still have my respect. The rest of you are [s]oft. Whatever happened to 'folding until the job is done'?? Not even the French surrender that quickly.

    JUST SO YOU ALL KNOW, IT IS NOT MY WORK. I just think you would all like to see it, it's another OCAU member's work of art. Oldnewby has posted more pics at OCAU (and probably Bit-Tech as well), since you guys love it, I will pump them here. Link to the post (and the nice comments about...

    A from scratch Aluminium case... very different and meticulous quality.

    Yes Logan, he has a stinking big lump of Jarrah that he is going to carve into a cover for the CPU/open side. He already has a Alu cover on the HDD/SSD side of proceedings. Jarrah is one on Australia's most loved decorative woods, and it is very very dense. I think the lump he has would...
