You are receiving this notice because our records indicate that you
purchased an aftermarket Western Digital Corporation ("WD") hard disk
drive between March 22, 2001 and February 15, 2006. "Aftermarket"
purchasers are those who purchased their hard disk drives separately
rather than pre-installed by an original equipment manufacturer into a
computer. (I've purchased 2. Internal and External HD

You can read the entire email at the following url

It give you options. One is the following;

If the Court approves the settlement, WD will change how it markets and
advertises the available storage capacity of its hard disk drives. WD
also will provide eligible Class Members with free backup and recovery
software to use with their hard disk drives.

Just curious about the free backup and recovery software to use with
their hard disks.
