135 dollars for WD4003FZEX is a good price? I can get it for this price from someone in ebay

Thanks in advance for an answer.

Well a new 4TB WD Black is about $215 dollars, BUT that also comes with a full 5 year warranty from the date of purchase and you know for certain that it will be in good shape.

If you need an extra drive that WONT have critical data on it then the Ebay drive might work out OK, but you'll never know for certain until you receive the drive. It might have bad sectors. The warranty might already be void.

Personally if I were going to spend $135 on a 4TB hard drive I'd get the WD Blue. It only has a 2 year warranty, but I'd know for sure that for 2 years any defects would be covered and I wouldn't have to worry about a drive that has already been mistreated.

Don't think scam..he has 99.9% feedback with the score of 13639 and it's new according to the details he mentioned

Uh huh.
Does "new" equal "WD warranty"?

As always...how does he have a "new" drive for sale at 1/2 price of retail? How does that work?

Do you have a link to this listing?

Unless he provides a 5 yr warranty, what he says may not count. What does WD say about it the warranty?

IF HE WILL SAY THAT THERE IS A WARRANTY I WILL ASK HIM FOR A PICTURE OF IT IF IT'S NEW HE SHOULD HAVE A WARRANTY
