YMMV. Costco has Seagate Backup Plus 5TB portable hard drive USB 3.0 for 69.97 in store. This may be a closeout item as the asterisk on the price tag indicates.

Last year I saw a guy purchase a whole flatbed cart of these. Probably around 80-100 drives

Wonder what his deal was and how much he was profiting. lol

Repost. Another thread, found using forum search, from a few weeks ago about this very YMMV deal.

Looks like in-store only deal. Going to get gas after work at Costco, gonna pop in and see if my can grab a couple. It's still cheaper than getting a NAS.

Likely mining Chia, a relatively new storage-based cryptocurrency. Hard drive prices are through the roof due to demand but coming down as latecomers aren't getting to profitability.

I called every costco in the united states and they checked and had none in stock.
You're not going to trick us into not going to check

This was before Chia? Like July/Aug last summer.
