16x10tb cons
- takes up more power (imo actually matters on something with 24h uptime)
- takes up more drive bays
- more points of failure
10x16tb consPick your poison
I use Victoria and it takes around 1.35 hrs per TB. Doing this enabled me to confirm a couple of noisy drives I received and returned for replacement.

1) Yes, these are used drives. If you don't like it, move along. You don't want anyone to actually try to refurbish these because they are welded shut to contain the helium. I'm guessing virtually zero third-party places can effectively service these.
2) For an extra $10-20, you can probably get another 2+TB on another SD here. This is the normal (good) price for a sale.
3) Yes, you'll get the full 5yr warranty from goharddrive. If you don't believe me (and you shouldn't), ask them directly
4) You may get a PWDIS drive, so be prepared to snip or tape that third pin, use a crimped molex connector, or use an enclosure, depending on your needs and if you have an older PSU that doesn't power up the drive correctly because it doesn't support PWDIS.
5) Yes, it IS a lot of data to potentially lose. But if you actually care about your data, it shouldn't matter since you have backups and are potentially putting this into an array where RAID/parity means you also have fault tolerance and (hopefully) reporting.
6) Just like with any new (to you) drive, use software to run a full surface test of the drive. Something like the older WD Data Lifeguard will suffice here, but some people prefer HD Sentinel, badblocks, H2testw, or the stuff built into their array solution (like unraid preclear or Stablebit Scanner).
7) Yes, there have been better deals in the past. Give us the keys to the DeLorean or don't bother posting your humble-brags.
8) I probably forgot some stuff, but these are pretty much the things that should IMO be listed at the beginning of every HDD thread because it gets old real fast.
This is a favorite, because it has a good sized cooling fan.
Having said that, in increasing order of price and maybe also build quality: MediaSonic ProBox (multiple models), TerraMaster (multiple models), Synology (multiple models).
There's also the DIY route using something like OMV, unRaid, TrueNAS Scale, or even Stablebit DrivePool + snapraid on a Windows box.
Not the answer you probably wanted, but that's my opinion.
Meanwhile someone else who ordered just before them did get cables. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
