Disappointed ordered 2 and both were DOA. Grinding and screeching on first power up. When the platter slowed after power down could heare the heads or the bearings scratching. Vendor quickly got me a return shipping label and now I wait for an exchange.
Buy two and mirror.
So you bought drives advertised as being used for roughly 5 years before being pulled from a datacenter, and you're going to return them because the SMART data says they were used for 4 years and 3 months?

And your other drives that had the SMART data cleared now show they've been in use for a year, one year after you installed them?

You don't say...

I took a look and in this previous deal, users emailed the seller and confirmed it was a 5 year warranty. Looks like 90 days is for refunds or replacements.

This is an ok deal. Nothing to rush about. They've been cheaper. I will say goharddrive is great about their warranty. It is 5 years and they do back it up. They replace or refund.

It won't be unusual to see 3-5 years of continuous use hours on these but usually low power on cycles. Very reliable and solid hard drives.

Got two (disk scan right now) and all have 4+ years power on hours. Oh well, it came with 5 years warranty on the invoice.

What's a good jbod for these? Almost all the jobs I have checked in the range sub $150 have so many negative reviews...from Mediasonic to others. They all complain that it disconnects, it's slow, it dies....is there any good model you guys vouch for within this price range and even higher price?

Quote from luckydog97 :
Unless you're running them in RAID 1, I'd seriously reconsider the value of potentially losing large amounts of data should a drive fail. That's the REAL cost of a failure that no warranty can compensate you for.

Even then, I'd trust a single brand new high quality drive over two of these with RAID redundancy.

Not worth it.
Why? Do all your drives die quickly? Mine don't. Maybe you should be gentle with spinning drives.
