Got recommended this store for cheap HDDs recently. They sell enterprise HDDs at near wholesale rates so they’re almost half the price per TB. Just picked up a couple of 16TB drives for like $800.

$363 for a “new” 16TB Seagate EXOS… Setting off my “too good to be true” sense. How are your drives and what does the place look like?
Just placed the order a few days ago so haven’t gotten them yet. The person that recommended the site to me has bought several and they work. It’s cheap because the store bulk buys OEM drives so the warranty is through them instead of Seagate/WD.
Please report back… the site and its prices get my scam senses tingling 🙂
My drives came in and they work fine. Spun up and reported the correct size. Passed a Wiztree test too. They are a bit “clicky” though. I guess that’s a characteristic of enterprise drives. Luckily I have a case with a lot of sound dampening.
Thanks for reporting back. The guy behind the site is arranging a group buy on ozbargain. I’m tempted to grab a couple…
