No Stars if possible. Unacceptable packaging.
19 Mar 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
We ordered four 2.5" Western Digital Velociraptor 600 GB SATA III hard drives listed as fulfilled by Amazon. We received a 19"x14.5"3.5" box with items crashing around loose inside. We did not even think it was the hard drive shipment. Upon opening, we viewed the four drives that had gathered loose in one corner with nothing less than a couple sets of AIRplus pillows that had been thrown into the box. From TN to CA the drives had been beating each other to the extent that the non-padded factory electro static bag of each drive looked like used foil.
No telling what shock and damage this inferior packaging has caused these drives. Absolutely the worst packaging of any product we have received from Amazon. This is beyond missing the mark, it is brand damaging. Is this what is to be expected from Amazon shipments in the future?
Highly disturbing for a $1200 plus electronics purchase.
