Hi,

I have a WD 2TB passport that is making this weird clicking sound. I've had it for a while now. Is it time to get a new drive?

Thank you for bringing up warranty, it's not something I thought about since I thought this was an expected failure mode. Turns out WD authorized an RMA even though I couldn't find my receipt because it's been less than 3 years since the ship out date from their factory and their warranty is 3 years so pretty happy with that.

Aye glad to hear you have a game plan. Hope the replacement process goes smoothly
