Maxtor used to do that too -- they called it an "Advance RMA". They'd
send the new drive, and you had 30 days after it arrived to send them
the old one. If you didn't send it back, they charged your credit card
for the RRP of the new drive.
You can guess what happened to that policy after the Seagate buyout...
