Thanks for the heads up. Just grabbed 2 for myself. Out of stock for a couple weeks though so I won't get them until 3/16.
Nice thanks! Delivery in 2 weeks though!
Now where are the 14TB $200 deals? I need 4 more.

$14.58/TB for these for anyone doing the math.
14TB at $200 would be $14.28/TB so these are very, very close. There were a bunch of 16TB SAS drives in the CDW Outlet that bottomed out at $288 before they either got bought or went to the liquidation pallet (I think it is the latter)--$18/TB for those at that price but that's a true enterprise drive with a 5yr warranty versus these shucked things.
My only thing about enterprise SAS is the power consumption heat for low power storage usages at home, but at 16tb capacity then goes a long way to making that not a worry either.
Pretty amazing the density these days. Be it spinny things with 60 drives in 4 or 5 U (almost a petabyte) or super fast NVMe flash about 500TB per 2U if you find the right system.

Not sure if this enclosure is compatible but imagine 0.72 PB raw capacity when fully populated...
