If you are buying 5+ drives that could be 2 more for redundancy and $80 still in your pocket.
These 3-4% discounts shouldn't be constantly posted, especially when "everyone" knows about SPD already and all their subsidiaries and shady practices.
$130/14TB is their current normal price.
$120/14TB is when a post will get more appreciation from home-server folks.
So far my own experience has been exceptional. The packaging of the drive they ship you is about as good as it gets.
Do you have reference to the shady practices?

I had "everybody" in quotes since anyone on the lookout for drives on SD has surely become familiar from the many SPD posts. And home server folks are familiar with all the refurb places generally.
I've purchased from SPD before, no complaints about packaging, it's great.
As far as shady practices (marketing/spam specifically), that's less common knowledge but picked up from haunting the homelab/datahoarder-type subreddits. All evidence points that Server Part Deals is also Tech on Tech, Water Panther, Server Tech Solutions, and perhaps other e-commerce stores (same physical location/address/phone). Water Panther is banned some places for egregious spam and deception (relabeling used drives as new).
It's fine to do business with these refurb places generally, but novices should be warned that the drives need thorough testing.
My main point was that the price has been pretty much holding steady. It was good of you to share the existence of SPD with the broader SD community, but now let's wait for SPD to have a real sale.
Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank ErnieE1622

Isn't the NEW 14 TB DC HC530 at $121 a better deal than than $130 for the Recertified version?
https://serverpartdeals
Also, it shows 3 year warranty but on WD directly, it shows this drive as a 5 year warranty?
