Yeah we have been through that too. We just went through that with some 1TB drives in different raid setups. They did not tell us until we had already done all the testing that any information had to be cleared through them before release. We said no thanks and returned the drives. Their main concern was that we are not an "Official" testing house, even though we use the same software and in fact the exact same test setup that other "officially" blessed testing houses use. That is why we are trying to get one of our vendors to pony up with the loaners. That way they can have the results of our tests and we can share them around...
