I just bought this drive "WD740GB 74GB 8MB Cache 10,000rpm SATA HDD", a western digital raptor, I believe, but I didn't realise it wasn't a retail boxed one. It is for a pc I am building, so all new parts. I am led to understand that an OEM drive dosn't have the following (an and from looking at the very bare box):
Installation Instructions
Drivers and/or Overlay Software
Mounting Hardware
Interface Cable
Warranty Card
Jumpers?
Would I have needed any of these? I have ordered a case, am going to order a mobo, and my psu has an extra cable with it. But am I going to be short of any of these cables or drivers? And I take it the warrenty dosn't mean anything without the card (Which was one of the reasons I picked this drive).
