I had purchased an external drive from OWC a while ago. I decided to add a 2nd external drive and was trying to hookup the OWC external drive I had been using with an adapter the Apple Store sold me. I couldn't get it to work. Apple support didn't know why it wouldn't work. So I called OWC for help, as that is where I was going to buy the 2nd external drive. In the past, OWC was outstanding. This time the OWC representative was unfriendly and didn't seem like he cared if I ever purchased anything from OWC again. I felt like ... read more
I want to support small businesses over Amazon, but unfortunately the experience buying from Amazon is so much smoother than buying from OWC. When I buy from Amazon, most everything I buy gets to me in 1-2 days, with step-by-step tracking.

Since this is a large item to ship it was going to cost me $140 which means. It's not worth the time and frustration to deal with customer service as they have not offered anything but a "s... read more
If you have porch pirates in your area, and you buy from MacSales you are wasting your money. I purchased a hard drive upgrade for and old Mac Pro. I live in an apartment complex and have had packages stolen before. OWC locks out the shipping on their end so I was unable to redirect the package for pickup at a FedEx location. Emails and calls to their customer service and shipping operations were fruitless. I was basically told there was nothing they could do. Of course when I got home and the package was missing. OWC refuse... read more
