Is there no forwarder available with addresses in Germany?

 

[zeynel]

the seller is pretty arrogant. have a little bit communicated with them. short and arrogant answers.

 

[ecosse]

Thanks - I wont bother trying. A few times I've been able to buy stuff from Germany on Ebay by asking them to open up the auction individually to me. I can't be bothered with forwarders I also can't be bothered with arrogant people

Lol, they are located in Bochum where I work... could be I should pay them a visit on behalf of STH.. /jk

How is seagate today anyway? I have had several of their Barracuda LP's failing like dominos and they don't seem to have a very good reputation, especially according to that backblaze report

Supporters of Seagate will tell you Backblaze used consumer drives, not suited to their use case etc etc. Detractors will say they are using the same type of drives from other vendors fine. Others will say WD own seagate and HGST so you would think by now they are adopting best practices across their porfolio.

These french retailer returns stats say seagate isnt so bad in Oct15-Oct16 ?!

What, is Seagate also owned by WD? Freaking bad for the competition in this field since WD already owns Hitachi disk business too!

I believe the HDD market will die out soon, I mean hey we got 4tb 2,5" ssd's now, give it some years and those will be "mainstream".

At least I hope so.

I think @Patrick posted from a conference where a 80tb 2.5" SSD was shown.
Also that ssds are already same $/GB for enterprises.

It's a well-known fact that the Seagate Barracuda 3 TB drives produced after the factory floods have had huge issues. But if you actually bother to read up on some of Backblaze's later "studies" you can see that Seagate are about as good as Western Digital with a lower price.
