Could also be something like great value Salt. It's Morton's with a different label.
Could also be cheaper to keep making them and to sell them at Cost and call them recertified than to shit down production.
Could be canceled contracts with companies that went under or scaled back upgrade plans.
Could be they have a shit ton of parts to use before increasing density to the next gen.
I think you're right in the idea that these aren't failed drives that were repaired, but I don't think it's something bad.
Who knows it could even be the same "upgrade your Apple every year on us deal" but for data centers

I wanted to check if these 18tb ones will be good enough for use in a backup NAS and had posted the a similar comment on the comments pages for the 14tb deal.
Thought of creating a new deal post as the previous one was for 14tb drives and already had 13 pages of comments.

I'm using several of these drives..various sizes in a truenas....working without an issue. Debating grabbing 2 of these 18tb ones. The previous were seagates.

Well amazon is going to charge sales tax...for 4 drives it was around $35 estimated taxes so it's gonna bring it up to around $119....for $125 serverpartsdeal has some 14tb drives with the warranty being about a year longer...I'd be prone to take that method...the one's you pointed to are "amazon renewed" which can mean almost anything....the serverpartdeals ones have a history of being reliable amongst slickdealers who purchased them.
You are correct..they confused me by throwing up an "estimated taxes" on the checkout process early..getting to the end did show no tax so everyone except people in Florida are safe.
Any suggestions on what tests should I run on the drives when I receive them ?

Do you need to run different tools on SSD or m2 style drives?
Finally can it check MAC format drives?
