Trial versions are free for 1 month
you bought the unit at a sale so if the trial version was installed , the free period is well over so you have to pay or uninstall
next point warranty is from day of sale . not day of manufacture so discuss that with the shop because for them to deny warranty full period means that it is not new but second hand and all you got was the remainder of the warranty period
In other words , you have been had
you can get brand new 1T hard drives for less than $90.00

Take it our of the external encasing and plug it in directly to your motherboard. This has worked for me in the past. I just had my second wd external harddrive crash so now I will do the same process all over again.

I am not sure he did not clarify..I could barely understand his englist.. but it will not even let me into the harddrive.. he said something about manually copying and pasting files into it for it to work but idk?
Hi, To clarify, They told you something was a trial version, what was the trial? Were they referring to software that came with the drive? Chris
