wd 640gb

[killster1]

so one my 640gb's had few problems.. in event viewer it said the disk had errors problems etc.. well ran chkdsk backed up all the data and now it seems fine heh.. so should i rma it? run some special tests? im always so paranoid with hds so my first thought was back it up and rma it..

Since you live in CA, shipping should only be ~$5 using WD's UPS online service. For $5, I would just RMA it to be on the safe side. Their RMA service is quick, too. But if you want to test it and possibly keep it, run the WD diagnostic test and see if it detects any errors.

Usually when one of my HDDs begins to have minor problems, much like what you experience, it is only the start.
