18tb

The WD Reds (/Plus/Pro) got some (STH) critique lately. Here is a WD Ultrastar on a competitive offer...

I've been watching 18TB prices and this looks like the cheapest out there right now. 18TB enterprise hard drive

Sure, a bunch of disk shelves and refurb drives could be cheaper but it'd take up a lot of space and power. This jbod seems like a solid deal at $25K for 1PB of storage. I'm not sure who would need it, maybe someone mining filecoin or siacoin or something like that...
