Costs I estimate to be typical for 1 HDD, about 120USD which is about 170CAD

For 5 HDDs, I estimate about 485USD which is about 685CAD.

Ymmv, and these drives are if you just want bulk capacity at the lowest price over all else.

    I’ve been buying 8TB SAS drives from eBay. No failures yet and the price is far cheaper as they won’t work with conventional SATA controllers so there is less demand for them.
