At least not the later PMC ones. I remember that my drive wasn't even 6
months old when it died. PMC's policy was to replace it with a
"refurbished" (read: used) replacement. That one barely lasted a month.
PMC then stated that their backlog on replacements was something like
12 weeks. I wrote the cost of the drive off and moved on. PMC ceased
operation shortly thereafter.
Mind you, I was using the drive only for testing, so fortunately no
important data was stored there.
I note that the southern California operation that bought the bankruptcy
sale stock is still in operation and offers a refurb Apex drive for
about $250 with a 30-day warranty.
No Thanks.
