applicable period of the original warranty or ninety (90) days from the date of shipment of a
repaired or replaced Product, whichever is longer.
The foregoing limited warranty is WD’s sole warranty and is applicable only to products sold
as new. The remedies provided herein are in lieu of a) any and all other remedies and
warranties, whether expressed, implied or statutory, including but not limited to, any implied
warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, and b) any and all obligations
and liabilities of WD for damages including, but not limited to accidental, consequential, or
special damages, or any financial loss, lost profits or expenses, or lost data arising out of or
in connection with the purchase, use, or performance of the Product, even if WD has been
advised of the possibility of such damages. In the United States, some states do not allow
exclusion or limitations of incidental or consequential damages, so the limitations above may
not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other
rights which vary from state to state.
Warranty Information
(Australia/New Zealand only)
For consumers purchasing products in Australia and New Zealand, please refer to this
warranty information.
Nothing in this warranty modifies or excludes your legal rights under the Australian
Competition and Consumer Act or the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act. This
warranty identifies WD's preferred approach to resolving warranty claims which is likely to be
quick and simple for all parties.
No other warranties either express or implied by law, including but not limited to those
contained in the Sale of Goods Act, are made with respect to the Product. If you purchased
your Product in New Zealand for the purposes of a business, you acknowledge and agree
that the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act does not apply.
In Australia, our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian
Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and
compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to
have the goods repaired or replaced if goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure
does not amount to a major failure. What constitutes a major failure is set out in the
Australian Consumer Law.
Warranty
WD warrants that the Product, in the course of its normal use, will for the term defined
below, be free from defects in material and workmanship and will conform to WD’s
specifications. The term of your warranty is 1 year in Australia and New Zealand, unless
otherwise required by law. The term of your warranty period shall commence on the
purchase date appearing on your purchase receipt from an authorized distributor or
authorized reseller. Proof of purchase shall be required to be eligible for this warranty and to
establish the commencement date of this warranty. Warranty service will not be provided
unless the Product is returned to an authorized distributor, authorized reseller or regional WD
return center where the Product was first shipped by WD. WD may at its discretion make
extended warranties available for purchase. WD shall have no liability for any Product
returned if WD determines that the Product was (i) not purchased from an authorized
distributor or authorized reseller, (ii) not used in accordance with WD specifications and
instructions, (iii) not used for its intended function, or (iv) stolen from WD, or that the asserted
defect a) is not present, b) cannot reasonably be rectified because of damage occurring
before WD receives the Product, or c) is attributable to misuse, improper installation,
alteration (including removing or obliterating labels and opening or removing external
enclosures, including the mounting frame, unless the product is on the list of limited user-
serviceable products and the specific alteration is within the scope of the applicable
instructions, as found at http://support.wdc.com), accident or mishandling while in the
possession of someone other than WD.
