This review is from: Compaq 286776-B22 36.4GB 15000Rpm Ultra320 SCSI Hard Drive (Personal Computers)

This review is not about the drive itself. It's good product. I've been burned buy a seller here on Amazon who sold me drives they claimed were new. Instead, they were used for more than three years. One was even formatted already. Foremost found lots of nice data!

Use smartmontools and a cable to test whether the drive is new. Smartmontools does not lie. Why? the drive stores the number of hours the drive has been in use and smartmontools gets this information out of the drive. There's no excuse! There's even a Windows executable of smartmontools.
