It's Best Buy. Most people probably live within 15 minutes of a Best Buy store. Just buy this. When it arrives, leave it in the box unopened. If a better deal comes along, buy that instead, and return this one to Best Buy. They'll accept the return without any hassle since it's unopened. And the factory seal being intact means they can put it right back on their store shelves so you impose minimal cost to the store as well.

That turns this problem from you saying "damn, I should've waited for a better deal", into Best Buy saying "damn, we should've offered a better sale price."

My guess would be they're trying to say "not for laptops" cause if they just list the size in inches people will still be like: "will this fit in my laptop."

Paid $169.99 each AC for three 14TBs @ BB. Using one and stored the rest.
Better deal I say
14tb reds? Or shucked drives without 3 year warranties?

Should be under $133 before tax using the recycle coupon. I believe that deal was in effect until the new year or later last I checked.

7200 or 5400 rpm?
I just cracked open the pair of drives I picked up at Best Buy and verified via CrystalDiskInfo these are indeed 7200 RPM drives.

You talking about the 14tb drives that need to be tested and shucked?

There was a deal at Newegg Friday to get these for $132 after using their zip pay in 4 at checkout. Limit 2 though by the time I checked out.

Has to be. I have been watching 10gb+ wd red drives for months and haven't seen 14tb drives anywhere close to that price on the reds. Sure, you can get a mybook and shuck it, but they usually have lower tier drives like elements and whites.

Sorry no, I was talking about the 8TB drives in the original post. Those are the drives I purchased and verified are 7200 RPM drives. I know the listing stated 7200 RPM, but considering I could not even find this specific model on Western Digital's website, I wanted to be sure.

Been out of the game for a while now, I over built my pc years ago so I haven't been paying attention to drives. What are these drives good for? Storage, Nas, system? Looking to replace my really old drives. Not that they don't work, just they were carry over from previous builds to save costs. Mostly store games and other non essential data. I always back up my personal family content, which is the only thing that matters to me if my pc takes a dump.
