Might as well spend $5 more to get 2 more TBs:

Just curious. For home use I'd assume the Exos is still amazing.

HOWEVER, that price you're quoting is a 3rd party seller "Goharddrive" which is a notorious fake-refurbish reseller. They take used drives, and wipe the SMART data to make the drives look new. Sometimes they'll leave the SMART data intact but I wouldn't trust them at all unless you were not putting annoying important on the drives. The warranty is legit, but you're just playing with fire with drives more likely to fail from use.

It is the ST8000VNA04 which is the retail version of the ST8000VNZ04/N004 in the Amazon deal. Identical specs, warranty etc.

Since I needed to get 2 drives, I bought them separately to maximize discounts:
Drive 1: $139.99 + $12.18 - $42 discount = $110.17 shipped
Drive 2: $139.99 + $12.18 Tax - $30 discount = $122.17 shipped
Total: $232.34 shipped with tax, so $14.52/TB. Not bad. (or $207.98 before tax at $12.99/TB)
