I am based at Indore India ; My service provider has installed new Hard Disk having following specs :
Western Digital Hard Disk 40 GB ; Model WD400BB-OODKAO ;S No WMASL4214877 . This Hard disk was installed on my above referred Computer in 2nd fortnight of Jan 05 and has given way in 1st fortnight of this month after merely working of less than 9 calender months . The system , on an average, is being used 25 hours a week . Incidentally , the CD installed earlier in yet another computer P-200 was in second fortnight of Dec 03 which gave way in Jan 04 .
I would like to know [a] if both the Hard Disks given to me by my service provider is original ? and what is the normal price for the Hard disc of this type , model .
