Pretty good $/TB if you're trying to build a storage array with fault protection. Server Part Deals has been a pretty reliable store for me so far.

I've purchased 16 factory refurbished Seagate Exos drives from Server Parts Deals. All have been running great with no failures. With that said, according to the website these drive have approximately 35k hours of use. That's four years of life on a drive that has a typical life expendency of 5 to 6 years. I would pass on this one.
Personally I'd wait for the goharddrive deal to come back around. Better warranty, proven customer service. The one year warranty kills this one imo.
The other deal for refurb HGST 12TB drive, same price $80, was better. According to Backblaze data, Seagate had horrible drive failure rates, while HGST drives did very well.

Got the two I ordered, checked them out, installed in my NAS, everything looks good so far. Impressed with the packaging when they shipped. Sealed static bag inside a form fitting bubble wrap, each drive in its own little box. I bought two of the same model earlier from go hard drive, so far all four look good and No bad sectors on any of them.

I got this $73 drive from Server Part Deals (eBay) and it had 21000 hours with 20 power cycles.

I got the exact same $82 drive earlier from goHardDrive (ebay) and it had 75 hours with 5 power cycles.

Got the same earlier from goHardDrive, mine only had 75 hours and 5 power cycles when I just checked, probably really had under 70.

Do you think goHardDrive reset the SMART data?

the quality is too bad. the hard drives makes a lot of annoying sound

I bought 2 and I agree. They make a lot of annoying sound all the time. My asustor nas is partly to blame too. But it is mostly the drives.
