Almost bought the 12tb for about the same price/tb a couple of weeks ago.

Glad I waited on this one. Thanks for posting.

Designed to work in highly scalable environments, Seagate Exos X series hard drives help to enable some of the fastest data transfers possible.

That's mean it is server graded hdd (just like WD Gold), not just a random 16TB harddrive, worth the price!

I just received a warranty replacement from Seagate for one of these. Same label as what's show in this deal. They are completely reset and show 0 power on count and 0 hours.

Rather pay 100 dollars more and have 5 yrs warranty through Seagate - they replaced 5 of my 12 14TB for free within the last 4 yrs

The 14TB mfr recertified version for $134.99 on the site is the better $/tb, FWIW.

Especially for new... I've only ever seen that many fail if a shipment was mishandled or if there are bad environmental conditions.

That's the primary reason I'm somewhat skeptical of these drives. They're well used retired from data centers, there's no doubt about that. It would be better practice to leave the SMART data in tact so the customer has a better idea of the current health status of the drive. You can do a surface test, I'd recommend it, but that doesn't give you any information regarding power on time or data read/writes.

Thanks, bought the X18 14TB [serverpartdeals.com] for $134.99 instead; didn't need the extra 2TB for now
