OMG! I was thinking of RMA-ing my spoilt 120GB Western Digital HDD.
Then i entered the serial number and got this

Anyone knows why is it stated as Out Of Region? I bought the hdd from Fuwell in SLS on 28/08/2004. Still have the reciept. The warranty sticker on the HDD pasted by Fuwell still intact.

Someone pls advice.
Thx for the help.

if so, pass ur hdd to fuwell itself along with reciept and tell them the problem.

Possibly a PI hard disk?
