Also considering these, my refurb Seagate 18TB's have been pretty problematic.

Do these have "Recertified" text and date near the top-right of the label; would you mind sharing a picture of the drive (feel free to whiteout the serial number)?
No, they're new. There's no "recertified" text anywhere. Just the original mfg date. Not sure how to post a pic

Thanks! Just curious - what are the mfg dates on your five drives?

New here, I read somewhere on WD forum that the WD warranty goes with the drive not the purchaser, so wouldn't WD warranty still hold, of course depends on when it was first sold?
These are enterprise drives so believe it's different. At least in my experience you usually don't get warranty on enterprise unless you are first buyer and bought from authorized distributor.

The Ultrastars used by Backblaze (14 and 16 TB) are tremendously reliable. Furthermore, I've been researching 18 TB HC550s to see what you might be referring to and have used 20 minutes to find no results. What have you heard about this?
Yeah this is the first I've heard they are unreliable. All the data I've found says they are like god tier reliability..

if these were BRAND NEW it would have 5 year WD Warrenty.

This has 3 year from 3rd party vendor from SPD (ServerPartsDeal means.)



...this is from their website showing same drive marked as NEW with 5 year Manufacture warrenty.

NEW is 324 dollars for same model has the one in this thread. Research this youself.
