OK. Why do they hurt customers by wiping their data?

What manufacturer recovers data from its HDD under warranty in Moscow, Russia, free of charge?

Some repairs are so easy or slight that could allow reading the data
without a data recovery service. What service allows reading the data
after the repair?

Leonid is right. Data recovery service is not very expensive in Russia
($50-500). But western manufacturers void their warranty after the data
recovery in Russia.

Was Quantum the only company to ever include data recovery? I remember
them doing this maybe 15 years ago, when their drives were warranted
for 2 years.

Because, as you have been told repeatedly, even if the
drive is repaired/refurbished, the customer doesnt get
the same drive back and the last thing customers want
is someone else getting their data.

Thats got absolutely NOTHING to do with oligarchys.
You're welcome to backup your data and pay for data
recovery if you are stupid enough to not bother with backups.

Correct.

You normally get a new drive.

Not allowing reading data after a easy or slight repair is very stupid.
They lose trust of customers.

And what, pray tell, if the poster had had his data damaged by malicious
intent, over which he had no control?
But then you know everything, you arrogant little squirt.

It is even more stupid to be attempting to do repair of the particular
drive the customer returned when those stupid enough to not back
up their data can use a recovery service to get their data.
They lose trust of customers.
Only the fools too stupid to backup their data.
They've never amounted to a damn to a hard drive manufacturer.
Modern hard drives are all about dirt cheap commodity
products that hardly ever get repaired anymore, stupid.

With Leo bluffing alot that is hard to say sometimes.
Just have a look at that thread which still awaits his answer.

Well maybe you are an olicharch then if you find $500 cheap.
But western manufacturers void their warranty after the data
recovery in Russia.
So what.
If you find $500 cheap then the cost of a new drive is peanuts in comparison.
Who is an olicharch?
You even sure you are russian?

That's a rather silly question
(not to say that your other questions are ever so bright).
If it's repaired then you can read it yourself, obviously.

Wiping the drive and running test patterns on it is part of the repair
procedure. And they can't do this on just the unused area because that
won't find problems in the used area.
But they don't generally perform "easy or slight repairs" and send your
drive back, they just send you another drive and then fix yours at their
leisure.
I've never expected a repaired drive to come back in anything but factory
default condition--if you do it's an unrealistic expectation. The drive
manufacturer assumes that you've done your part of the job by maintaining
proper backups--if you don't then it's your own damned fault that you lost
your data.
