I just bought a new "2TB" Western Digital hard drive. Imagine my |
2 |
surprise when fdisk reports it is only 10MiB in capacity! Is there |
3 |
anything I can do to rectify this (of a technical nature)? I live in |
4 |
Bangkok so it is not unlikely the guy in the little shop where I bought |
5 |
it sold me a load of junk. But the device is in warranty until 2022 |
6 |
and looks convincing (I checked the serial number on the WD web |
7 |
site). Of course I can go to the WD service centre and get the HD |
8 |
exchanged but I thought I would see if there were any technical |
9 |
wheezes first. |
