Expensive drive was shipped in plastic bag between two loosely fit air pillows. Foam was not used as mentioned. Drive was basically free to slosh around in box.
YES, OEM drive, but there is no retail version of this drive. Don’t buy this drive from Amazon.
Promised securely packaged replacement from Amazon came loose in box like the first. Worse, one of the air pillows was deflated. Don’t trust Amazon for enterprise quality hardware.

Got this for Synology DiskStation DS209 – to backup my home network. It’s a very solid drive and when using for critical backup – you should feel good that this has a 5 year warranty – that is hard to find so I’m banking on this enterprise-level drive being of solid build. I think that is why it costs a little more than comparable drives. I didn’t have any problems with shipping – mine was tight in a box with two plastic end covers holding the drive securely – end covers fit perfectly in the box.

This 1 TB hard drive performs like all other Western Digital hard drives that I’ve purchased in the past: Excellent! The 32MB of embedded buffer, along with it’s capacity, speed, and reliability — clearly made it a valuable upgrade. This hard drive also spins very quietly.

The original hard drive in my HP EX485 MediaSmart server was nearly full and I wanted to add an additional drive in one of the remaining bays. After reading online information and after a short discussion with a Western Digital representative, I decided that a Western Digital RE3 series drive would meet my needs for a fast and robust internal hard drive.
The drive arrived quickly and in excellent shape. The installation in the server was easy. The drive has been working correctly in the server for several weeks.
