I can't say what $20 is 'substantially cheaper'. Sure, if you need dozens of TBs...
And currently you have a big chance of getting an SMR HDD, which is... quite a gamble.
- korv 4y agoThat's a very expensive HDD. Amazon got the 4 TB WD Blue for $65
- 83 4y agoI've been averaging about $19 per 4tb SAS drive on ebay (refurbs), though sata tends to cost a little more being the more common format. I've had great luck with surplus HGST drives, they tend to be more reliable than Seagate.
- tehbeard 4y agoThat's very dependent on Amazon actually shipping you the drive, which between my recent experience and tales from a few friends in the industry, is much more of a coin toss these days.
