You can take it out and reformat it to NTFS, so clearing all the data so bear that in mind before you copy and then shuck. I've shucked 10+ WD's and they work great.

Nah 6 month warranty because they have broke before and are more likely to do so again. That's why they're cheap.

Wow cheap upgrade for my naps once I sell old drives. I take it you can just take these out and reformat as usual ? I have been stripping these drives out of enclosures for years always been a really cheap way of getting drives.
