Always test these before you deploy them on servers.
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"

Of the customer-grade ones over the years, I've had several die.
Just my experience!
And I too do a lot of work in data centers. Enterprise class drives have a completely different lifestyle and life expectancy.
Also it looks like these are SED drives if anyone wants to rely on that type of encryption. I wouldn't bother and would use it as a normal drive.
1 of 2 is already DOA - if HDD is plugged in PC won't pass POST. I was able to after 2-3 tries and Crystalinfo says CAUTION and there are Smart errors found already .. so that is goind back.
The 2nd disk is "GOOD" in Crystaldiskinfo but DAMN IT .. I think it is also broken as it sounds like a grinding machine.
I'm about to run badblocks to see how it goes but ...
Anyone wonder if this is better deal than these HGST? I bought a 14TB Exos from serverpartdeals drive and it doesn't make this awful sound.
Thoughts?

They are definitely wiped.

People keep saying "bathtub" curve implying majority of the failure is on new drives, which isn't even true for newer drives. The thing is, drive failure increases significantly after 5 years (hence the bathtub). These drives are older than 5 years and out of warranty -- that's why the data centers are dumping them. https://www.backblaze.c

Seagate constellation and Seagate ironwolf.
I didn't buy as refurb but just second hand via eBay or forums.
Also running data centers I see the stats in drives that are pulled after 5-7 years and they often still look good.
The consumer drives I've had issues with were older WD or Seagate from experience, but I haven't used spinning consumer grade drives in 10+ years now for my NAS/SAN (using ZFS actually).
