Warranty on a second hand drive

[WatchMan]

Hi guys.

I've got a problematic 2.5 WD external drive that I purchased from my buddy. It is still under warranty, as such, am I able to send it for repairs back to the manufacturer. Don't have the receipt though but apparently registered under my buddy's father's employer...

If it's a WD it probably came from Drive Control Corporation, http://www.drivecon.net/contacts.html

Contact them with the serial number and they will be able to sort you out if it's from them.

Ah, thank you dear Ponder.
