Buyer beware, these drives are supplied by NewEgg and they have fallen off a cliff for items they provide. And even more so for marketplace items. Drives (WD20tb red) from Newegg have been recertified when buying new. Drives from market place have been counterfeit (870ssd).

NewEgg has been going downhill since they started that marketplace garbage and began screwing people on their return policies. NewEgg selling via Walmart's marketplace seems rather desperate to me. Believe me, I loved shopping NewEgg 15 or 20 years ago, but I wouldn't bother with them now.

I really feel like we need to see ~$10/TB. Mechanical drives haven't really been dropping in price.

That's not true. Warranty is from date of shipment to customer. To quote the actual product manual:
Quote :
"2.14 - Product warranty
Beginning on the date of shipment to the customer and continuing for the period specified in the purchase contract, Seagate warrants that each product (including components and subassemblies) that fails to function properly under normal use due to defect in materials or workmanship or due to nonconformance to the applicable specifications will be repaired or replaced, at Seagate's option and at no charge to the customer, if returned by customer at customer's expense to Seagate's designated facility in accordance with Seagate's warranty procedure. Seagate will pay for transporting the repair or replacement item to the customer. For more detailed warranty information, refer to the standard terms and conditions of purchase for Seagate products on the purchase documentation.

The remaining warranty for a particular drive can be determined by calling Seagate Customer Service at 1-800-468-3472. Users can also determine remaining warranty using the Seagate web site (www.seagate.com [seagate.com]). The drive serial number is required to determine remaining warranty information."
If you use the tool on the website, it gives you a warranty date based on the manufacture date because they have no idea how long a drive might sit in a warehouse. My new drives were built on 02/25/23, and they reported an warranty end date of 06/25/23. So it looks like they give you 4 months as a default for warehouse time. So, good tool to check that it's not a counterfeit drive and an approximation of for the actual warranty. They also specify:
Quote :
"Please Note: This status is provided for your convenience. There may be other factors that affect your warranty status such as country of purchase, etc. To see full warranty information please refer to Warranty Replacement Claims."
So, if you have your receipt, it's 5 years from ship date. Without it, it's 5 years from manufacture date, plus a few months. Actually ran into this several years ago with a drive that died and had a 3 year warranty. It's manufacture date was just over 3 years, but I had the paperwork to show I purchased it less than 3 ago and they honored the warranty.

So, don't believe everything you hear/read. Even the generic warranty statement on the Seagate site says check the manual for the exact terms of your warranty.

checked my warranty via the serial on https://www.seagate.com/support/w...lacements/ and it shows Dec 2027, when it should be Nov 2028 - nearly a 1y difference

Costco has the Seagate 14TB portable drives for $150. Still had some in store last night but I think they are sold out online. You can get one and shuck it to get near the $10/TB number.
That's not too bad. Not sure what specs are in that drive. In the past two weeks I sourced a used enterprise class drive for $10/TB.

I decided to scoop up six of these 20tb exos at $219.99 as manufactured recertified from https://serverpartdeals.com/produ...hard-drive after missing out on the bestbuy deal for 18tb @ $199. Two year warranty instead of five year. They all show zero hours in the SMART tests (likely reset/wiped firmware) and people seem to have fairly decent experiences with them on Reddit. Worth a shot if you have some "meh" data or got a good raid setup and backup strategy.

it's seriously so annoying that mechanical drives are this expensive.

i'm trying to buy a synology nas this black friday (or grab one locally, someone has a DS220+ for $150 on facebook) and just want a couple 8-10TB hard drives for around $100!

2TB SSDs are dropping like a rock and i'm sitting here begging for ancient technology to become affordable
Just wait, the 2tb are going back up again.

You can see the stats live. https://www.backblaze.com/blog/ba...r-q3-2023/

The lowest AFR drives are HGST (now WD HC) and Toshiba. The Seagates have become better in the last few years (except for some problematic models) but personally I purchase manufacturer renewed HGST/WD HC Helium drives they are super-reliable. I believe the WD Pro is another SKU for them (not the plus).

An example (w/ 5 year warranty to boot): https://www.goharddrive.com/WD-Ul...496-cr.htm

I would wait a bit though, everyone emptying their wallets right now recert are either sold out or higher price, so now buy new. Wait a few months and buy recert.
I trust server part deal because I had bought a few drives from them before. All drives is ok after full format and extended smart scan. How is go hard drives? I think their price is a little lower than server part deal and seems to be the go to for chia farming.

Mine arrived today, with a 09/22 manufacture date. DOA, kept making a beeping noise when plugged in and my system could not recognize it. I'm returning it…
