What is everyone's problem with Newegg? I've been buying from them since 2005 (if memory serves) and never had a problem with their customer service on any product. Besides, Newegg is just the storefront here, goHardDrive is the actual seller and shipper on this deal. I'd grab a pair of these without hesitation, except I just ordered a pair of 18TB drives last week for $135.00 each.

I have a 10TB version of this drive. Picture a grandma with the shakes holding a box of rocks. That's about what these sound like when their busy.

Go on YouTube and watch Gamers Nexus. They did a report about Newegg.

These are different models, but for all practical purposes they are the same.

Hahaha, yeah, you and me both! I've got some 25+ year old IDE drives still working good as new! It will probably take a solar flare to finally kill them, maybe that wont even be enough...?
I finally threw away an old 20GB SCSI disk which was connected to a PCI scsi adapter!! Yes it was 20GB… must have been 25+ years old… it was a huge block - about 5 inches high but otherwise size for a 3.5 inch disk… I wish I had kept it after I tossed it… 😜

Are deals like 12 TB for $73 that was on eBay recently rare or I can expect them soom? That seems like the best ratio $/TB and I just need it for simple NAS with old PC, nothing fancy.

You're talking about a drive with a 2.5 million hour MTBF...... I think anyone would take those odds counting on a typical life expectancy!

MTBF are wildly extrapolated numbers. No hard drive will actually run for 1.5 million hours.

"Bottom Line: Don't put too much trust in MTBF numbers. A 4% failure rate means that 1 in 25 hard drives will malfunction in the coming year."

Maybe I misunderstood your intent but it seemed like your post implied you expect these drives to have a typical lifespan of 2.5 million hours (285 years).
The MTBF are wildly extrapolated numbers. Typically a hard drive might last 5-10 years. This is why I always say that these drives are more than half way through their typical life.

About this deal in particular. I've found that NE does a garbage job packing and shipping drives. ServerPartsDeals who have posts on here often have refurbished drives that are packed VERY well and are far more likely to get to you properly.

Says 'sold by GHD', and the warranty is honored by GHD. Should be no different than buying directly from GHD

That guy has never worked with storage.

We replace drives that throw an error. It is that simple. My data is worth more than some random $300 drive. If I get any significant errors, it is gone. Bits flip, entropy, power surge, etc. Pulling it and plugging it back in will fix a huge portion of those failures, but we don't care. We paid a premium to make sure I will have a new drive in a couple hours. The old drive gets tested, wiped, recertified, and sold on as refurbished. I can also tell you that if we got 1 in 25 (4%) we'd replace the whole array with another vendor. We averaged 1-2% annually.

Do we hate on them because they're communists, or because they're capitalists? So hard to know these days.
