I ordered 2 about 30 minutes ago but ended up cancelling both orders after doing a little price research. It appears $180 (or less) is the sweet spot. This price is meh unless you need it right away but otherwise you might be better off holding out a bit.

For reference, the most recent slick price was $175 for the 12TB Elements (non-Best Buy model) in mid July and previously, $180 for the 12TB Easystore in April.

At 190, price is fine. You'll save less than a dollar a TB on the typical sale price. So if you need it now, solid. If you don't and can wait, there are better (but again, in general. Less than a dollar a TB lol)

What's a good VPN and sites to use? I've been out of the loop but just recently started my own NAS.

If you don't mind waiting for BF, the 14tb has been $200. Set a deal alert and wait it out IMHO.
