Nope, no problem doing that.I preclear drives first (its a good test of the drive) and let it sit as an Unassigned Device. Once you are ready, stop the array and assign it and good to go.

Have you checked their prices lately? Granted I've only been tracking the WD HC530's but they are currently at $169.99. A year ago I got the same drives from SPD for $129.99. From what I've seen, used pricing has been consistently creeping up so it's refreshing to see deals again on new drives.

Looks like shucking is back! Finally a price on a new drive that gives used drive pricing a run for its money. In for 2, thanks!

Anyone see a problem with buying this and letting sit on a shelf for a long time? Say a year or two? It's the perfect size for my unraid array, (already have one of these exact drives in there already) but I don't need it right now. But kind of want to have a cold spare sitting around for when my old 6TB drive bites the dust.

While Seagate has 26TB at a similar price, is Seagate worse than WD on reliability?

Grab these and wait 30 days for a better deal. Return if you find a better deal.

No, that's exactly what I do when I find these WD deals. My closet is filled with them. Remux and TV series fill them up fast.

100% smart tests and preclear so it's ready to go and weeds out any problems while I can still return it lol. Thanks yep, just purchased. I actually just did this with another drive I bought last year. It sat on the shelf and then just last month I decided to replace a 3TB drive I bought 10 years ago, not wanting wait for it to die. Just hadn't really thought then about any consequences of sitting on the shelf. Thanks for the answer. I Google it a bit and it does seem like it's good to sit, provided it's in a semi stable, dry environment.
