... by the Drive manufacturer.
I'm assuming since it's OEM provided stuff they aren't, but I'm just wondering if the drive itself can be RMA'ed back to Western Digital, for example.
Apple give a standard one year warranty on TC's....That's the whole unit, the drive can't be separated from that part of the guarantee..
But the maker of the drive won't warranty it?
If they did, it probably be 1 year also.
Would Samsung have a 1 year warranty on the chip used in the iPhone? No, the whole phone has a 1 year warranty on the whole phone.
Yeah, but drives are generally third-party and carry their own warranty of 5-7 years. Not sure

1. Show me a drive with 5-7 years warranty.
Companies like Apple, Dell, TiVo, HP, etc buy the "OEM" version of hard drives.But the maker of the drive won't warranty it?

What a PITA!
No. This is what you get buying 2nd hand. You take the risk of getting faulty goods, but the payoff is that you might have gotten a really good deal on something that works find. Caveat Emptor... or something like that.
Um, actually...
The TC is fine, but I wanted to RMA the drive in case there were errors.
But thanks for trying to teach me a lesson there!
