The most commonly asked questions concern new components that do
not function properly.   The simple answer is usually that the hardware
is bad right out of the box.  Just return it for a replacement, as all
new hardware, (except purchased from an unreliable vendor), can be
returned for replacement.

Just because hardware is new does not preclude it from being bad right
out of the box.  Personally, I see this about 5 to 10 percent of the time...
and in some cases much higher.  I once bought a case of Maxtor hard
drives, (this being several years ago), that had a failure rate of 40%
right out of the box.  Now that was annoying.
