90 day warranty on summat that already went wrong, when you pay about £20 more for something with a years warranty

You could say they've been pre-disastered.

If you buy a western digital hardrive from Scan you get a 5 year warranty.

Yes, but that's £84.95 for a USB 3 external hard drive which seems a strange thing to bring to people's attention in a forum supposedly about shopping, suppliers and bargains. How many people yet have computers able to run USB3 at its full capability? Effectively £53 for a 4 year 9 month warranty doesn't seem much of a bargain.
