- shiroiushi 2y agoI'm pretty sure he means brand-new versions, with the idea that high-end enterprise tech like this will eventually become inexpensive consumer-level tech, as it usually does.
- edgineer 2y agoOld drives on eBay are somehow usually in great condition and barely used in my experience.
- xuki 2y agoYou would be surprised! Enterprise stuff get decomissioned after a set amount of time, it doesn't matter if they still work.
- fx1994 2y agoTrue. In our storage we had complete servers and storage originally packaged in case server in our Datacentar would die. After x years we decommissioned both of them. It was a heartbreaking moment to throw stuff to recycling that was not used and mint packaged. I secretly hide some Pentium I laptops that came with storage and gave them to collectors.
