For sale : $300 including shipping to the continental US
1 - 800GB Micron M500DC
1 - 800GB Intel S3500 --- SOLD
Both drives are OEM HP drives with very little use. As noted in other posts HP drives provide limited SMART info and likely don't include a manufacturer's warranty. I'll plug them in to verify, but I don't think SMART lists TBW for either drive.
I purchased them new from Ebay and installed and lightly benchmarked them. No steady state or other heavy write intensive testing was performed. The drives performed as expected, but I only have 1 each of these drives and would prefer matching drives for ZFS arrays.
Update-5/2/2015
The M500DC is still available. I recently used it to back up a friends laptop with a 256GB SSD (I'm not sure quite how much data was on there, but it wasn't full), so I can't quite say it is new anymore. Given the rarity and current price of these on ebay $300 seems fair, but message me if you're interested and maybe we can work out a deal.
