UPDATE 2024-01-19: OOS (or actual stock corrected) -- not sure if orders will be honored.

Via the Western Digital Store on Amazon:
HGST, a Western Digital Company Ultrastar 7K6000 4000GB 7200RPM SAS 4KN Ultra ISE 128MB Cache 3.5-Inch Internal Bare or OEM Drives 0F22794 [amazon.com]
Capacity: 4TB
Style: SAS 4KN ULTRA ISE

$23.00 NEW + $shipping
(I get $3.50 for delivery within a week to US East)

As this is $5.75/TB, diskprices.com [diskprices.com] says that the next best price for new drives of any kind on Amazon (US) is $9.66/TB, and $6.33/TB used. (Compare also prices of other configurations -- caution this may have been a misentered price and may not be fulfilled.)

To comments: SAS is not SATA and not SCSI -- your stock home PC is not compatible. It is generally for servers, or a home setup with some extra hardware. It is a physical spinny-go-round hard drive and not solid state.

Other technical notes per comments:
Note SAS drives cannot be used with SATA harnesses (i.e., likely all a Win Home desktop has) without converter hardware (e.g. Dell PERC H310 [ebay.com])
ISE: Instant Secure Erase
4Kn: Hardware addressing thing (see vs 512e, zfs [reddit.com])
