Cheap (refurb) 8TB drives.
-
@nixxda I bought two of the exact same hard drives but from Amazon. Plotting them as we speak... :)
-
$178 for a 8TB hard drive is a great deal was that USD?
When I go to the page the drive is listed as a Marshal 8TB drive? Does Marshal = Toshiba? Also the price is $210 for me.
-
@weaveR The price went up since this was posted. They are Toshiba drives, and Marshal Co is selling them.
-
@weaveR Yeah, price went up, but still good deal. Marshal drive's are refurbished Toshibas.
-
@haitch There are some refurbed 6TB Marshals here: Refurb Toshiba 8TB for $154 shipped. These are 7200RPM drives instead of the 5400 RPM 8TB Drives. And just to reiterate, the 8TB refurb drives I've got have been rock solid.

newegg ebay had a $179 8TB seagate external drives, brand new! about a month ago, I grabbed 2. You can just take the drive out of the enclosure if you want to install it as internal. So watch ebay closely, they will often repeat these deals.
-
@kokojie With the luck I've had with Seagates, I'm not buying any more. Of the 8 I had in a NAS, three are still functional, all the others just died.
-
