Was it $130 few years back? I thought that was the price when I bought it.

Prices went up due to Chia mining according to retailers. No one I know mines Chia. I will just keep waiting for prices to return to the $120-130 level.

Yes, $20/TB is only acceptable if you need it right now.

I just worry that Chia will be the new excuse (it used to be 'floods' but that's old now) so these retailers can make $20/TB a "bargain" again.

Yeah that was the price last year. Sorry to say but probably won't see that price again anytime soon.

True, there's a rumor every week that manufacturers hold back their stock for no other reason just to inflate prices.

That's a know technique. OPEC used to do the same to stabilize oil prices.

Seems like the price has only gone UP over the last 3 years. Crazy.

Anyone know if these still have HGST drives inside them?

It's an Easystotre, not even one with a 3 year warranty... What a pathetic joke. It's an insult that this is even posted.

2 Billion thumbs down....
