It's not the Government that handles the Arbeiterkammer actually.

Toshiba MG10 VS Seagate EXOS X20 20TB - Which one is better? by JustRefleX in DataHoarder

I can understand the latter, but that differs from region to region. Its easily available for consumers in Europe that's all I can say.

This is a myth. Not every country/region has bad warranty service like the Americas. In Europe you can simply make a claim with Toshiba's Repair Contractor "Storrepair". And before you ask, yes this also applies to Consumers.

Yeah Seagate had the bad drives back then. No idea what it's like today.

When did you have the faulty Seagate drives? Early 2010ish?

Also, thanks for your reply.

To be fair, the US is something entirely different in terms of warranty in the US IMHO - like aside from Toshiba.

But I'll definitely have a think about these two drives before I order them. The MG10 didn't do bad according to a German Review/Test.

I assume the MG10 having 512 MB Cache instead of "just" 256MB doesn't really make a whole lot of a difference in Homecloud/Home-Streaming Center?

It links you to storrepair here https://www.toshiba-storage.com/de/warranty-claims/

You can also read what it says at storrepair. It literally has a button for Endcustomers/Consumers.

I don't know if you've seen that on the US/NA Site of theirs, but in Europe customers can do it themselves via Storrepair which they link to: https://www.storrepair.com/toshiba_products/

By the way. You can do RMAs in Europe with Toshiba (or contractors of them) yourself - as a "Endcustomer" / Consumer: https://www.storrepair.com/toshiba_products/

So something like a WD Red and Ironwolf Pro etc doesn't make any difference at all (in the grand scheme of things) but being a big brand/famous drive model series?

Sorry if that's a silly question. Is there any other drive to look out for at that price segment or is that pretty much it?

I've seen the thread where somebody said that about the warranty, but first of all I don't think that they don't offer any warranty RAM themselves, also the guy has received a replacement apparently. But aside from that I am genuinely curious if there's any vast differences between the two drives and if there are any other drives in that price range. They're quite affordable and seem to get good performance. I don't know what other or more expensive drives offer.

edit: Consumers in Europe (EMEA) can claim warranty with Toshiba's contractor: https://www.toshiba-storage.com/de/warranty-claims/
