Well I do agree that mishandling accounts for a large
percentage of failures... though it's not always the user
mishandling, could be a shipper in which case one would have
to buy locally if they have no assurance any particular
shipper will do better than another shipper.
You brought up another point I forgot to emphasize. My experience is
based on WD drives bought from Directron, which is a local vendor.
And I always have Directron burn them in for 48 hours or more.
