Always test these before you deploy them on servers.

Yeah, you'll find how people who understand how to safely maintain data with backups are happy to ride out the (generally long) life left on these used enterprise drives for the significant discount.

Then you'll also find the people who have no understanding of how to protect data, or the bathtub curve of failure, getting thumbs down for their "warnings"

Let the "Seagate Sucks vs Western Digital Sucks" wars begin. I've been using several of these recertified data center drives from both manufacturers for years without any problems whatsoever but remember on a long enough timeline every drive will eventually fail. Just remember if you're storing critical data on any drive it would behoove you to practice redundancy and back it up elsewhere as well.

Sure, they're generally going to run a bit louder than consumer drives, but these are pulled from servers that were usually doing lots of IO operations

Just check backblaze for problematic models. Every manufacturer can drop a turd from time to time. Speaking of crap, do they still make SMR drives?

Agree!, bought a CMR drive once and Crap is describing it nicely! Ended up throwing it away...
Methinks you may mean 'SMR'....?
