How to understand refubrished HDD

Good day. I am a WD10EZEX user. Is there any way to find out if it is a refurbished hdd? I bought it 7 months ago. Power on hours: 1050 hour.

do a warranty check …

According to the WD Shop site, a brand new WD10EZEZ has a 2 Year Limited Warranty

If you find the warranty check status is less than that … then you have a Refurbished/Re-certified hard drive because they don’t have the same warranty period (usually 6 Months or less) as a brand new one. (same applies to OEM drives)
