If you look in the top right of this you'll see where under the SMART test it shows what appears to be 3 warrenty concerns. However it did pass the quick test but when I tried the extended it said it was going to take over 100 hours (?????) to complete. God knows I haven't zero'ed or extended tested anything over 250GB but that seems a bit long!?!?!? :confused2

These are not in the "system" but are using a "USB 2.0 to SATA/IDE" adapter. (http://www.meritline.com/idesata-to-usb-20-cable-adapter-wone-touch-backup-model-ada-2020-otb---p-57365.aspx?OrderBy=1&pagenum=1&RatingSortByYN=2&ShowVerified=1) the same way I tested the V'Raptor...........
Not familiar with the WD Diagnostics, but if the drives are failing it then I'd RMA them just to be on the safe side. Also, I generally don't recommend buying refurbished drives, drives fail enough as it is, I wouldn't spend money on one that had already failed once. That's just my opinion though.
