The hard drive I received was from 2014 and was not new. However, it had very little use on it and according to the S.M.A.R.T. data is still in perfect health. It was used to replace a failing 1TB drive that was used for backups. Note: this is an enterprise grade hard drive so it isn't exactly quiet. I would not recommend using this drive for a boot drive as it takes approximately 6.5 seconds to spin up. As for reliability, I have had many bad experiences with 2.5" Toshiba hard drives. I was willing to give their 3.5" line of drives a test. Only time will tell.

These drives still have a lot of hours left on them but are quite noisy in "seek and read/write" mode due to their sturdy construction, which is not an issue in a server farm, but quite loud in your home PC especially when de-fragging at night.

I bought this when an old drive failed. Didn't expect it to perform as well as it does. Quieter than my old drive and it seems to perform a bit faster. Good deal.
