Out of region

Is OUT OF REGION just a slick way to avoid honoring the warranty? Most companies sell internationally.

As far as i know it means that WD is selling that kind of HDDs only to be build in Ready- / Complete- PC-Systems and therefore they are not meant to be sold on their own because the Warranty is also associated to the Resellers but some of them just don´t care about. :wink:

Hello,

You should contact WD Support directly and they will assist you updating the region on your drive.

Contact WD

Once I had this problem and WD Support helped to update the region of my hard disk. So you need to open a case with them and get them to update the region for you.
