Returns
You must receive an RMA (Returned Materials Authorization) number from our
Technical Support Department before any Plextor drive can be returned for repair or
replacement. Any drive sent to Plextor without an RMA number will not be
accepted. Drives must be sent postage prepaid. We recommend that you insure your
shipment, as Plextor cannot be held responsible for any damage that may occur
during shipment.
