Is Seagate dumping these?
So far so good with my shucking, but these frequent $17/TB sales are suspicious.
They’re an external kit, so what’s in em? Can we crack the shell and use the guts for real/internal disks?
Recent batches have Exos 2x14 drives in them. I have three of those. I bought two a couple of years ago that had regular Exos x14’s in them. And yes, “shucking” means opening them up and separating their valuable contents. That’s how I am using my drives as plain SATA drives in a SAS2 disk shelf. The Seagate Expansion Desktop case, however, is designed such that the plastic clips holding it together will break easily.
Why so cheap?
Because you have to buy another one in a year
