Western Digital Caviar Black 640gb AALS Dying?
Well i have 2 of them in Raid 0, bought new less than a year ago. One of the drives keeps failing. I have suspected it for awhile, but now my load times take forever, and i keep getting an access error from windows.
Is there any way to diagnose if its failing? Will WD warranty it? What would a HD like these be worth used for sale?

How long have you had the hard drive? If its 5 years or less. You should RMA it, since the hard drives cover 5 year warranty. According to the official WD site it states there: http://support.wdc.com/warranty/poli...policy?lang=en
So yea, follow the RMA link and you'll be moving along. Hope that helps.
