## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does this drive have a sand like noise when moving it?**
A: I Bought this before and returned it because when i opened the non static bag, it had the sound of sand or like the non silica that was found in a white bag out side the hard-drive in the non static bag. Just got my replacement and still makes the same noise and read online tat some hard-drives have silica gel  inside the hard-drives to protect the drive further. But im unsure can anyone ensure me?

**Q: How long is the warranty? will upgrade my linux pc for more space.**
A: 30 Days from delivery

**Q: Is this internal  hard drive compatible with the acepc rk2 mini pc**
A: I am not familiar with "acepc rk2 mini pc" however, this WD HDD is a SATA device, so you must refer to the specifications of your PC to check whether or not it's a match. A mini PC may not have space for a drive this big.

**Q: Is come with windows?**
A: no, but think it comes with Acronis so you can partition the disk
