20tb for me which are $400 @ B&H currently. They did recently have a sale so I grabbed some, but I need more to flesh out this synology. Even on sale I had trouble justifying it. I’ll bide my time and get there eventually. I believe (can’t really trust my memory) these used to be down in the lower $300 range which seemed fair.
They just haven’t been dropping prices much at all. Even with newer gigantic drives being made.
12tb drives are $150. What are you looking for?
Where lol? WD reds are like 300€ here.
Not Seagate 12TBs or SMR because they almost all have a very high failure rate on backblaze (specifically 12TB)

Prices are twice that here in Hungary. We do have a “you’re going to use this to pirate stuff anyway” tax for storage media, but it’s not just that.
