Hi all. I’ve seen a few drives described as recertified like the one I have linked. Can anyone tell me what this means? Is it the same as used/refurbished? They all seem to be much cheaper than new so are catching the eye but I’m not sure if it would be a good idea.

    Recertified drives are the ones which were in use and were returned due to issues. They usually get fixed if required and sold again. They usually have the additional limited warranty, which makes them a good option for lower cost.
