WDC Warranty Status: Out of Region
Just purchased a 4TB WDC desktop hard drive from amazon.ca and received it today. Amazon's description shows "2-Year manufacturer limited warranty" but https://support.wdc.com/ shows status "Out of Region" and no Expiration Date.
Does it mean that Western Digital does not provide any warranty? How does it work? TIA.
Edit: Here is the listing https://www.amazon.ca/Blue-Desktop-Hard ... ics&sr=1-1
Edit 2: Just noticed that if I change the country to US, the "Expiration Date" shows Dec 12, 2021, the expected date. I looks to me that Amazon.ca selling in Canada merchandise for US market violates actually manufacturer's warranty agreement. I have doubts that WDC would honor it.
Really interested on what you guys think about this.
