Warranty Information

Obtaining Service

WD values your business and always attempts to provide you the very best of service. If this Product requires maintenance, either contact the
dealer from whom you originally purchased the Product or visit our product support Web site at support.wdc.com for information on how to obtain
service or a Return Material Authorization (RMA). If it is determined that the Product may be defective, you will be given an RMA number and
instructions for Product return. An unauthorized return (i.e., one for which an RMA number has not been issued) will be returned to you at your
expense. Authorized returns must be shipped in an approved shipping container, prepaid and insured, to the address provided on your return
paperwork. Your original box and packaging materials should be kept for storing or shipping your WD product. To conclusively establish the period
of warranty, check the warranty expiration (serial number required) via support.wdc.com. WD shall have no liability for lost data regardless of the
cause, recovery of lost data, or data contained in any Product placed in its possession.

Limited Warranty

WD warrants that the Product, in the course of its normal use, will be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of three (3) years,
unless otherwise required by law, and will conform to WD's specification therefor. This limited warranty period shall commence on the purchase
date appearing on your purchase receipt. WD shall have no liability for any Product returned if WD determines that the Product was stolen from
WD or that the asserted defect a) is not present, b) cannot reasonably be rectified because of damage occurring before WD receives the Product,
or c) is attributable to misuse, improper installation, alteration (including removing or obliterating labels and opening, disassembling, or removing
external enclosures, including but not limited to the mounting frame, unless the product is on the list of limited user-serviceable products and the
specific alteration is within the scope of the applicable instructions, as found at support.wdc.com), accident or mishandling while in the possession
of someone other than WD. Subject to the limitations specified above, your sole and exclusive warranty shall be, during the period of warranty
specified above and at WD's option, the repair or replacement of the Product. The foregoing warranty of WD shall extend to repaired or replaced
Products for the balance of the applicable period of the original warranty or ninety (90) days from the date of shipment of a repaired or replaced
Product, whichever is longer.
The foregoing limited warranty is WD's sole warranty and is applicable only to products sold as new. The remedies provided herein are in lieu of a)
any and all other remedies and warranties, whether expressed, implied or statutory, including but not limited to, any implied warranty of
merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, and b) any and all obligations and liabilities of WD for damages including, but not limited to
accidental, consequential, or special damages, or any financial loss, lost profits or expenses, or lost data arising out of or in connection with the
purchase, use, or performance of the Product, even if WD has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In the United States, some states
do not allow exclusion or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the limitations above may not apply to you. This warranty gives you
specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
