1) what is the speed rating on these chains? 2) What is the warranty period?

Sorry, I don`t know the speed rating or warranty. I drive less than 30 mph when the chain is on. I used the chains for about 10 times so far and haven`t noticed any problems yet.

Don't know the exact answer to either question. Thule website doesn't say. Run these on my 2011 Camry. Have gone 50 mph in them for miles, not a sound. Best chains I have ever owned. Fast on and off( once you practice a couple times. Highly recommend, doubt you can find a better chain for the same $.

The chains are speed rated to 35mph. Not sure about the warranty. That info should be on Thule's website.

Have no idea, as I bought and gave away and moved to Texas when we have no rain, snow or mountains and therefore don't need them. Sorry from Midland, Texas but they sure looked good and price was right when I purchased them for a Ski Trip to the Mountains dated this message 10-4-2013. Me without Chains for sure.

There is some vibration, maybe not as bad as standard chains. If there is a little build up on the road it will help to quiet the noise and reduce some of the vibration.Side note: try not to drive over 30mph, at 35mph I drove for several mile then I saw the driver side chain rolling away from me... not good. So make sure the lug tension is snug and no faster than 30mph. You'll love how quick and easy these go on and come off.

Hi Larry, my assumption is that the warranty period is for two years. Mine had an initial problem which was handled right away. However, freight damage is between you and the carrier 'though Amazon may be of assistance. Mine is running just fine and is a fine piece of machinery.

goto western digitals website and you can check the warranty status with the serial number that is on the drive. Most drives I have bought usually have 1 1/2 to 2 year warranties

3000 pounds per chain. I use them with my weight distribution hitch set up, pulling a 30FT coachman.

The chain comes with a master link already, but if you wanted to buy extras, the chain is 7.1mm wide. So get the 7.1mm Missing Link II for 7-8 speed.

warranty comes from seller... I bought two drives, and they were both date coded Oct. 2009. Well out of Manuf warranty. One of my drives was defective, and I didn't bother sending it back.

I have two of these drives and have had them for a minimum of 18 months. I have never had any problems with them. They work fine. They came with an AC power adapter as well as a USB cable.

Don't buy this Chain Saw. It will not last. Regardless of how long the warranty lasts, it's a pain taking it in for service and proving the problem is covered by the warranty. They are very expensive to repair. It will work OK for an hour or 2 at a time, for a while, but the changes they made to this model to make it Carb Compliant with US standards causes it to run at too high a temperature and it burns up after 3 or 4 hours of steady use. Just forget about cutting up a large fallen tree. I've had two and they both failed. Finally bought one, much cheaper, from Sears and it's just fine. They got me twice. No more.

Bought two of these drives, they were both new, shortened warranty period based on dated Mfg. date. These are very high quality enterprize drives and if they initually work they will last a very long time. Big advantage is they are not advanced format drives. They will work flawlessly with any operating system and run faster than advanced format drives.

I don't use a speed controller for my setup, but I can tell you that this broke down on me in less than 2 months. If there's a way to check without buying anything new, just tell me and I'll respond back.

I would not put the chains on until I really needed them. Not sure how long they would last if you used them frequently. I only bought these chains because of travel from Washington to Colorado during the winter months. If I was driving in the snow on a daily basis, I would buy actual snow tires for the winter months. Good luck!

Ive only ever run 7/8 speed chains on it, which work fine. I haven't tested any others

Im am no expert but I would put them on when the road gets bad, probably would end up beating them up on clear pavement thus premature wear on the chains. The max speed with chains on is probably not more than 15 to 25 mph, you should check with the manufactuers recommendations.

According to Technodeals, the company which is actually selling and shipping the drives, these are "bulk pulls" and classified as "New - other". They provide a 3 yr warranty and 30 days for returns. I don't believe WD provides any warranty for these drives. If WD was providing any type of warranty I would think Amazon would have listed it somewhere on the product page but there is absolutely no mention of any warranty with the exception of the $6.40, 2-year warranty offered by a third party. Look by the "Add to Cart" button on the top of the page. I've used a number of these drives, all "bulk pulled" and have never experienced any issue. Hope this helps and does not confuse the issue.
