## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can I use this with Cerbios on Xbox?**
A: No.

**Q: Does this have a warranty?  i don't mean the amazon 90-day warranty.  i mean either a manufacturer's warranty (from wd) or a seller's warranty.**
A: No

**Q: Whats the warranty?**
A: As a refurbished item it is 90 days.

**Q: Is there a trick to get this to work with Mac? It ejects every 5 mins and it killed my SanDisk SSD while they were plugged in together.**
A: Bit more info would have helped:  What kind of Mac?  How are you connecting it?  The only Mac's I know that would hold a 3.5 drive interanlly is the Mac PRO and they can be very tempermental when it comes to added peripherals.  If you are using an external inclosure, I would look at that before the drive.  Is that connecting unit actually compatible with Mac?  I never purchase any external stuff for my Macs without making sure it is 100% compatible with a Mac.  I have been running Macs for 20+ years and have never heard of one drive killing another, unless you were using a dual-drive external unit, then something in that unit might have crossed the drives.  Sorry I couldn't be more help.  When asking technical questions it is always best to be an informative as you can. Ie... what kind of Mac, (year, model, etc) and how you are connecting to that computer. 
Best of luck
