I opened mine up now as I am adding a few to a NAS (maybe not the best idea but good price)

These Barricuda are not enterprise drives, have 9-5 M-F duty cycle and 1 year warranty. It is very tempting however but what good is blowing $250 if the drive lasts 2 years.

You can order through door dash and if you link your cash app you get two orders with 40 percent off up to 20 dollars off. Not sure if it's slick but it's an option.

If these were confirmed Exos drives I would get 4 for the NAS.

I have one of these and it ran super hot while I was loading it up at 60C. I just put a normal household fan on it which dramatically dropped temps to like 35C. Probably not a big deal regardless

Because many of us don't run a NAS or 24/7. Cold storage.

If you read the OP comment, it said to rebuild a NAS, not cold storage. My response was to the NAS comment, but it still stands and the information is correct and this is helpful for people to know the duty cycle expectations are not for 24x7.
You are correct this will work for cold storage, but that is not what I was responding to. Perhaps you could have made a positive comment, think about being nice to fellow humans!

Sorry if it came across as me being negative or un-nice. I was just adding that people use it for a lot of different things, not just NAS. Even some NAS don't need to run 24/7.
It's hard to interpret emotions through a post, so I suggest assuming positive intent first. 👍🏽
