I'm not sure if it's a good deal though especially for $20-$30 more you can get WD Red Pro with 5 + 1 yr additional warranty. My 2 cents.
Lowest price it's been in over a month. Only $14 higher than the lowest price ever at Amazon.

edit: Oh, you mean this expired $294 deal without the 10% back (so $16.33/Tb). https://slickdeals.net/f/18385312-18tb-wd-red-pro-7200-rpm-sata-iii-3-5-internal-nas-hard-drive-294-free-shipping

The Ultrastar HC550 in the WD MyBook is a data center drive and is generally preferred over the WD Red Pro as HGST's drives have a proven track record.
(no drive failures from those four WD white label disks but it's time to refresh my NAS)

It's got 4 siblings, been I'm shopping for spares right now... I did have a spare 10TB, so it's back to RAID 6.
So it looks like the Seagate externals are no go since they are normally Barracuda drives unless you're looking at the very highest TB drive (like 28TB or 30TB)?
