$23.00 NEW + $shipping

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.
