CDC aka Drive Depot does the warranty on em...but you need original
receipt and all.  

Not to be a jerk or anything:-)...I got a 9.1 UW (3391SS) sitting in the
box all sealed nice and tight I wanna get rid of too.  I got it from
ONSALE for $279+$20shipping+~$24 tax...so I'd be very happy to get rid of
it for an even $300.  BTW, I got all the docs, so you can see the price
and stuff.  Too bad it's been sitting in the box for 4 months now, so the
warranty is down to 2 years and 8 months:-(
