All drives are a gamble, 2 is 1, but at refurb prices you can get 2 for the price of one new one.

I'm brand agnostic, but Seagate as a brand has far greater rate of failure vs WD.

Do I buy this and have someone install it in my desktop computer? My 300TB hard drive has filled up. I'd love 12TB.
Depending on your computer, you likely have a bay for the hard drive and might just need a Sata power cable to throw it in (as well as hard drive screws to secure it). It is something very simple to do yourself, and youtube is always a good resource for learning.
You can get a package of computer screws from Amazon for around 12 dollars as well as sata cables. Save your money and do it yourself

Warranty? Do refurb HDDs last? Is it a gamble?

Bought two 8gb refurbs 6 years ago from Newegg and popped them into a NAS in mirror RAID setup. Works great. On continuously 16 hrs each day for 6 years straight. When I got them, they already had thousands of hours of use.

I wouldn't hesitate. That said, put them in mirror RAID setup for redundancy. The likelihood of BOTH of your drives failing at the same time is near impossible.

HC510 is old. I think the current gen is 570 or 580. These have a minimum of 40,000 hours on them.

What the heck. I'm in for 3.

Starting to build my homelab - gonna use one for PoE camera footage, and two for a rudimentary TrueNAS setup in an old PC.

What write speeds do you get with this via
1) SATA interface
2) USB port using SATA-to-USB adapter
?

Depending on the beginning or ending of the drive (during surface scans) I was getting around 175mb/s then around 225+ after it was half over.

Attached a quick ATTO benchmark for your inspection.

How do you go about doing health checks of a drive? Are there any recommended free software out there that is reliable?
HDDScan and Victoria are excellent and free.

Sequential writes can likely reach 200-250MB/s at the beginning of the disk and drop to around 100MB/s by the end. Assuming you use a decent SATA-USB bridge, there shouldn't be a huge difference.

GoHardDrive let me RMA the 3x 12TB Seagate drives, cancel my 4x 10TB HGST drive order, and get in on the $70 10TB HGST drive. I have 4 drives in my NAS so replacing them with 4 would be a lot easier than starting from scratch. Might just take longer. 5/5 for their customer service!

Are these 10 TB used ones? How many hours? The Newegg page doesn't say whether they are used.

the only thing that holds me back is I've read these are loud. but the price is too good.. I may give it a shot on purchasing 1 drive and see how it fairs with the noise.
Honestly all 10TB + drives at this point are going to be 7200rpm. So all will be "loud".

4yr avg power up time on them with 50ish power cycles? They must be deployed in data centers not end-users' home.
These are certainly data center enterprise drives that have not been power cycled much.

The motor is usually not the loud part, it's the actuator seeking. Some older drives had AAM (Advanced Acoustic Management), which allowed the user to adjust between faster seeks and quieter operation. I haven't seen a drive that offered that option in a long time. I suspect it's now firmware locked, to differentiate different tiers of drives (consumer vs enterprise).

Depends on your pc usb and the enclosure usb controller, but it is slower than the 14tb.
