Would a brand new hard drive be better than a drive used for an unknown time in a server environment until its end of life amortized to 0 time.... yes

Good seeing these for this price. Hopefully by black Friday they will be $200 if the world doesn't end first.

anyone think hooking 4 of these up to a raspberry pi and using it as a storage NAS only for delivering content would be a good idea?

note: This would not run plex, another PC would, but this would purely be for the storage of the information.

Would this drive also work as a good desktop drive?

Stack em up like gold bricks, before more inflation hits and the next wave of supply chain disruptions - preferably in underground bunker Cool

Has BHphoto ever matched these deals? I have their Payboo card that immediately credits the sales tax.

Raspberry PI will become unstable if there are sudden power issues.

By default, OS is loaded from SD card, so I'm my experience I've had multiple os corruption issues due to this

Maybe booting through USB drive may make it more stable.

I personally will recommend Synology. Worth the investment.
