Looks like a limit of 5 per buyer? I had previously bought the same model from this seller and have had no issues over the last six(ish? give or take a month?) months with them. They went through badblocks testing, etc without a single issue. Of course YMMY but I am pleased with what I got months ago and the drives have been chugging along without issue in my TrueNAS box.

For the record I paid $80 a drive.

Didn't know about these deals so thank you for posting them here. The first is definitely priced better at <$6/TB but the second is around the same price except it comes with the controller and cables which can be a value add.

Are those 600 online in a shelf? Which shelfs? Or just in a box rotting away.
online when I lab/do stuff or when devs for misc projects needs a testrig for a new PR and such at "scale", my/our way of supporting the community, its far to expensive to run 24x7x365. 10 units x 4U x 60 drives.
