When a refurbished drive has low hours it's because the SMART data got reset during the refurbishment process.

They're still great deals. You're getting the remaining useful life on a drive made to run for a long time at high data rates. And, you can buy double the disks vs new ones, so you can setup your backup even easier.

Might as well use the most recently published stats...

TLDR; avoid Seagate 12tb and 14tb. 16tb drives so far look very good (X18). No published data yet on X24.

This should be boilerplate on any Server Part Deals post.

Quote from my3cents :
But 1685 power cycles over 260 days seems odd, especially for a server (some of which can run for months, a year, even more sometimes, without a reboot).
Yep. My existing drives have power on hours of like 72,000 and a power cycle of 48. The system doesn't go to sleep though. I don't know if that would affect the power cycle count or not.

Run a solid raid setup?
And if they fail you still have to rebuild and only covered for less than two yr if any.

Quote from jcab2002 :
So it's fine to not have backups if you're using new drives which also fail? Dumb take.
Please, no one listen to this advice.
Oh couse you need to have backups but there is a reason they were pulls or fails. You odds are greater it will happen again.

The reason why they were pulled is to replace them with bigger drives or they were already fully depreciated for tax purposes. They don't pull failures to re-sell. The odds are not greater for failures. But please go ahead and spend twice as much for almost zero benefit. I'll take twice as much capacity and I'll still never lose data.

This is ridiculous. If new hard drives are so great, why don't they have 6 year warranties?

Also, refurbs from GoHardDrive do have 5 year warranties if you're really that worried about it.

What reason is your wild incorrect guess on why these are pulled? I already told you why. And I have done it many times working with servers and storage.

Fwiw, I ordered 22 of these when this deal was active. I immediately put 20 of them to use while keeping the other 2 as available hot spares. ~10 months later, I am about to send off my 5th dead one for RMA (they have been sold out, unable to replace and just refunding me full price instead). So on one hand roughly 25% failure rate within the first year. But on the other hand they have been solid with honoring the warranty and providing easy returns/refunds.
