Factory Recertified Hard Disk Drives (HDD) are “refurbished” by the drive’s manufacturer and undergo rigorous testing guidelines until they are deemed “like new” with zero power-on hours.
Factory Recertified HDDs are predominantly manufacturer product returns or removed from unsold product, which for various reasons can no longer be considered new. The HDD must pass a manufacturer’s strict guideline for testing to be labeled as a “Factory Recertified” product. HDDs that do not meet these stringent testing requirements are not sold as “Factory Recertified.”
